Abstract: 

Freezing is a major environmental stress, inflicting economic damage on crops and limiting the distribution of both wild and crop species and risk of frost extinction. Plants in cold areas have developed several mechanisms of resistance to freezing temperatures during winter. Therefore, understanding freezing and how it is overcome by plants is of extensive practical importance.
