Abstract

Following a severe early fall freeze in their second growing season, cold damage to 30 pecan ( Carya illinoinensis(Wangenh.) C. Koch) cultivars or selections were rated according to the extent of phloem discoloration and bark splitting. ‘Houma,’ ‘Melrose,’ and ‘Shoshoni’ were among selections damaged most, while USDA 63-16-182, ‘Gloria Grande,’ and ‘Cheyenne’ were among those damaged least.
