B

D

vernalisation.

Answer

vernalisation.

Explanation

Solution

In several plants, particularly bienniales and perennials, light does not seem to be the only factor controlling the process of flowering. Temperature, particularly the low temperature treatment induce flowering. Vernalization means ability of low temperature | to convert winter cereal into spring cereal as a result of satisfaction of their low temperature requirement.
