The dynamics of cold resistance and the activity of the photosynthetic apparatus (PSA) of wheat germs at 4°C were studied. It was shown that in the first hours of cold, a certain functional readjustment to the changed conditions takes place in the plant organism. A decrease in the activity of the PSA and cessation of the linear growth of the leaf are registered at this stage along with an increase in resistance, as well as an increase in the coefficient of non-photochemical quenching of the fluorescence of chlorophyll. In one to four days, when resistance reaches its maximum, photosynthesis and the rate of electron transport are stabilized, the chlorophyll content in the lightcollecting complex increases, and the growth recommences. The final stage of adaptation (days 4-7) is characterized not only by the steady level of resistance but also by new functional organization of the PSA, which allows the plants to endure the lowered temperature successfully.
