A quick method of estimating chill hours
Not available – first paragraph follows: Most deciduous fruit and nut trees require a period of cold temperature below 45°F during the winter to induce dormancy and promote satisfactory fruit and shoot development in the spring. The length of cold period required, or chill requirement, has been established for most commercial fruit and nut varieties ...

EFFECT OF SOME EXTENDERS ON CHILLED RABBIT SEMEN STORED AT 5°C FOR 48 HOURS [PDF]
With the global demand for rabbit meat steadily increasing, commercial rabbit breeding has become more dependent on artificial insemination (AI) rather than traditional natural mating. The study aimed to compare coconut milk (CME) as a novel extender for rabbit semen with Tris Yolk-Glucose (TYG) and Lactose Yolk-Citrate (LYC), to evaluate the in vitro ...

The influence of chilling hours on root starch content, growth and yield of strawberry tray plants
The chilling requirements of two strawberry cultivars (‘Sonata’, ‘Albion’) were assessed by evaluating the starch accumulation levels in the tray plants’ root system and their subsequent growth and yielding. The research was conducted in an experimental

A Web-Based Chill Hours App for Fruit Growers
Many fruit plants have a chill hour requirement for breaking dormancy. Various models estimate chilling, but two models are commonly used for fruit crops. From 2000 to 2016, chill hour data were collected by Mississippi State University experiment station employees as well as by local fruit producers; however, the number of participants in the process ...

Flower Bud Stage and Chill Hours Influence the Activity of GA3 Applied to Rabbiteye Blueberry [PDF]
Individual flower clusters of `Tifblue' rabbiteye blueberry (Vaccinium ashei Reade) were treated with 300 ppm GA at several flower bud stages to determine the activity of the growth regulator in promoting fruit set. Applications were made one time only at a specified stage of flower development, or once followed by a second application.

Perspectives on the adaptation of Japanese plum-type cultivars to reduced winter chilling in two regions of Spain [PDF]
Japanese plum, like other temperate fruit tree species, has cultivar-specific temperature requirements during dormancy for proper flowering. Knowing the temperature requirements of this species is of increasing interest due to the great genetic ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of a dry air-chilling (AC) method on sensory texture and flavor descriptive profiles of broiler pectoralis major (fillet) and pectoralis minor (tender). The profiles of the muscles immersion-chilled and deboned at the same postmortem time and the profiles of the muscles hot-boned (or no chill) were

A Statistical Method of Determining Chill Unit and Growing Degree Hour Requirements for Deciduous Fruit Trees1 [PDF]
Abstract Dates of rest completion are rarely available for determining the chill unit and growing degree hour requirements of deciduous fruit trees. A statistical process has been developed which permits these constants to be determined from temperature data and dates of full bloom.
