Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Hardening in 12% sucrose at 2°C significantly increased frost resistance.
- Observation Cold sucrose hardening was accompanied by dehydrin synthesis.
- Intervention effect Cold sucrose hardening increased the contribution of alternative oxidase coupled to NAD(P)H dehydrogenases to respiration.
- Intervention effect At 22°C sucrose produced a slight increase in frost resistance.
- Intervention effect At 22°C sucrose produced a slight increase in mitochondrial respiration.
- Mechanism The authors attribute improved frost resistance partly to activation of alternative respiratory enzymes.
