Vernalization is generally considered to be affected by temperatures of 10°C or less, although the upper limit has not been critically established. It is generally considered that the weaker the vernalization response, the higher the vernalizing temperature necessary for maximum rate of vernalization. The vernalization process in partially devernalized seeds has been shown to be more rapid than in plants receiving just an original vernalization treatment. An important aspect of the vernalization process in wheat is the change in response of plants as they age. It is found that wheat was responsive to vernalization in 2- to 44-day-old plants, but the older the plant was, the shorter was the period of cold treatment necessary for vernalization to be satisfied. It is observed that spring wheat has little or no vernalization response and a winter wheat has a strong response. The use of intervarietal chromosome substitution lines in hexaploid wheat has facilitated the location to specific chromosome of genes that influence vernalization response. The interactions between genes for growth habit or vernalization response are also elaborated.
