- Intervention effect Longer chilling stratification increased peach seedling growth and normality.
- Intervention effect Additional stratification from 0 to 14C increased primary stem growth.
- Intervention effect Longer stratification at 4 to 14C decreased abnormal leaf development.
- Intervention effect At low temperatures, lateral shoot growth initially increased and then declined after longer stratification.
- Intervention effect Stratification at 8 to 10C decreased lateral shoot growth.
