Survival of poplar callus at super-low temperatures after cold acclimation1
The Institute of Low Temperature Science, Hokkaido University Sapporo, Japan
Callus derived from the cambial area of poplar twigs survived freezing down to 120°C or even the temperature of liquid nitrogen (196°C), after cold acclimation. Exposure to cool preconditioning temperatures for a length of time before being acclimated at 0°C is essential for enhancing fully the callus hardiness.
