Abstract

A brief account of the history of insect cold-hardiness studies shows that interest has been sparse and sporadic, and advancement contributed by a very small number of people. Three distinct aspects of cold-hardiness research are used as examples to show their basic dependence on physico-chemical principles and consequently the preferred direction for future research.
