Preface
This volume is based on the proceedings of the second international seminar on
plant cold hardiness, which was held at the Sapporo Educational and Cultural
Hall, Sapporo, Japan, August 11-14,1981. It contains a series of valuable articles
on the studies of plant cold hardiness since the first seminar was held in 1977.*
The seminar was again jointly sponsored by the United States National Science
Foundation and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science under the
auspices of the United States Japan Cooperative Science Program. The primary
focus was to update the knowledge of the fundamental phenomena of plant cold
acclimation and freezing behavior, to examine the hypotheses and new ideas that
were thought to be important in plant cold hardiness research, and to review the
application of research findings for improving quality of life. It was also our in
tention to utilize this forum to introduce younger investigators and newcomers to
the scientific community interested in plant cold hardiness.
It is hoped that the information reported in this volume will make an addi
tional, significant contribution to researchers involved in understanding and
planning research strategies for plant cold hardiness and for attenuating crop
losses by frosts and severe winters.
We would like to express our appreciation to Dr. Mikio Arie, the President of
Hokkaido University; Dr. Seiiti Kinosita, the Director of the Institute of Low
Temperature Science, Hokkaido University; and Dr. Malcolm Purvis, the
Director of International Agriculture Programs, College of Agriculture,
University of Minnesota, for their interest and support.

PREFACE
We would also like to express our thanks to the Japan Society of the Promotion
of Science; the United States National Science Foundation (Tokyo Regional Of
fice), especially to Dr. Ebert A. Ashby, the Head of Japan and Southeast Asia
Programs; and the staff and the graduate students of the Section of Frost Injury
in Plants, the Institute of Low Temperature Science, for their help in organizing
the seminar. A special word of thanks goes to Mrs. E. Ueno at the Institute of
Low Temperature Science, for her impeccable secretarial work for more than two
years.
Finally, we would like to acknowledge Ms. Virginia M. Dahm, Department of
Horticultural Science, for her preparation of the camera-ready manuscript, and
the contributions of the staff of Academic Press in bringing the volume to rapid
publication.
