Abstract excerpt
White clover ( L.) is the most important grazing perennial forage legume in temperate climates. However, its limited capacity to survive and restore growth after low temperatures during winter constrains the productivity and wide adoption of the crop. Despite the importance of cold tolerance for white clover cultivar development, the genetic basis of this trait remains largely unknown. Hence, in this study, we...
