THE EVALUATION OF THE FREEZING RESISTANCE OF THE WINTER SHOOTS AT CERTAIN GRAPEVINE VARIETIES FOR TABLE GRAPES UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE WINTER 2011-2012

Abstract

In order to achieve this paper we have studied the freezing resistance and the effect of low temperatures over the viability of the winter shoots at certain grapevine varieties for the tablegrapes cultivated in the Stefanesti vineyard, Arges. The studied varieties were: Canner, Auriu of Stefanesti, Perlette 10 St. from the white tablegrape variety; Muscat Adda 22 St, Argessis, Moldova from the red tablegrape variety. As a result of the study, we have noticed the sensitivity of Perlette and Augusta varieties at the low temperatures of the respective winter. We have presented data concerning the determining procedure of the percentage of viable shoots
