The comparison of soluble sugar content in various cell lines of Eucalyptus gunnii exhibiting different freezing resistances revealed that the most resistant cell line contained the highest soluble sugar content. It was possible to increase the freezing resistance of the sensitive cell line by progressive exposure to low temperatures (acclimation). During the early stage of cold acclimation, an increase of soluble sugar concentration was observed in the cells confirming the correlation between freezing resistance and soluble carbohydrate content in this species. In addition, feeding experiments on the sensitive cell line were performed to introduce specific sugars into the cells. Both electropulsation and long-term incubation in the presence of fructose and raffinose led to an increase in the tolerance of the cells during a freezing programme. Using radioactive fructose, the uptake of the sugar into cells and protoplasts was checked. In the light of these results, hypotheses are presented concerning the possible role of intracellular sugars in cryoprotection.
