T50 values were compared for each sampling date. Bud hardiness differences between rootstocks were variable. Cane hardiness for all rootstocks was similar through November, with C-3309 acclimating more rapidly in two of the three dormant seasons. C-3309 was more hardy than 5BB on a number of dates throughout the study. From December through March, C-3309 always had the most hardy and 5BB the least hardy canes in all three dormant seasons.}, issn = {0002-9254}, URL = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/39/1/55}, eprint = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/39/1/55.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Enology and Viticulture} }
