THE cold resistance of young seedlings presents a stimulating research problem. Kinbacher (4) reported that the cold resistance of 'Dubois' winter oat (Avenet sativa L.) seedlings varied significantly within a 24-hour period. Cold resistance of preemerged seedlings increased markedly the day prior to emergence (4, 5). Arakeri and Schmid (1) reported that plants in the first-leaf stage exhibited a higher degree of cold resistance than pre-emerged seedlings. Kinbacher (5) also noted that seed source affected the cold resistance of preemerged winter oat seedlings. The
