Freeze Tolerance
Freeze tolerance is a property of plants which allows them to survive though extremely cold temperatures. Plants gradually adapt to cold temperatures by adjusting their metabolism, hormone levels, and sugar expenditure. When exposed to low temperature, plants will form ice crystals in the xylem and apoplast of their cells to prevent physical damage to the tissues.
