Principal component analysis of cold resistance of some almond cultivars in Shache County of Xinjiang
In order to provide a reference for comprehensive evaluation of cold resistance of almond, taking ifve main almond cultivars in Shache County of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region as materials, some physiological indexes of cold resistance were determined and analyzed by using principal component analysis method, including SOD activity, soluble protein content, soluble sugar content, and so on. The ifve cultivars were ordered based on cold resistance. The results show that semi lethal temperatures LT50 of Zhipi No.1, Amannisha No.11, Yeerqiang No.14, Wanfeng No.18 and Breeding Cultivar No.5 are-30.128 2,-36.885 5,-32.592 1,-30.118 8,-30.3017℃respectively, and the order is Amannisha No.11, Yeerqiang No.14, Wanfeng No.18, Breeding Cultivar No.5, Zhipi No.1 based on cold resistance from strong to weak.
