Plant mechanisms associated with variations in freezing tolerance of cool-season grasses
Cool-season grasses are adapted to seasonal decreases in temperature that in some areas reach well below freezing; however, despite being able to acclimate to such conditions, plants may still be susceptible to winter injury. Specifically, direct low temperature kill caused by freezing temperatures...
