RESUMO

Treatment of 12-day-old winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) plants with BASF 13-338 {4-chloro-5 (dimethylamino)-2-phenyl-3(2H)-pyridazinone} 36 hours before frost hardening simultaneously and completely inhibits accumulation of linolenic acid in the roots during the hardening period and the acquisition of frost resistance. Increased unsaturation of fatty acids is therefore probably an important part of the mechanism of cold adaptation in winter wheat.
