Popis: Tissue water content is an important determinant in freeze survival of winter wheat. Research was conducted to measure the variation in tissue water retention during drought stress of hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars differing in potential for freeze resistance expression but without induction by cold acclimation. Tissue water status was determined on Leaf 3 of several cultivars grown in a greenhouse. The plant growth period was 20 d, followed by drought stress imposed by withholding water(.)
