- Abstract:
- Miller-Thurgau published the results of his investigations in 1886 concerning the effect of frost upon plants. His work was confirmed by that of Cavallero in 1888. These two men found that a cell did not suffer injury from the formation of ice crystals in the protoplasm. They also found that under the action of frost a rupture of the cell is very rare. Their results show that the formation of ice crystals occur in the inter-cellular spaces of the tissue of both hardy and delicate plants.
