Description

Opportunistic use of natural frost events to test differential frost sensitivity between style morphs. Flowers were exposed to freezing temperatures then assessed for reproductive success compared to unfrosted controls.

Typical Equipment

  • flower marking materials
  • pollination tools

Output Measurements

  • frost damage assessment
  • post-frost seed set
  • style morph survival differences
