A generalized nonlinear tempeature response function for some growth and developmental parameters in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C. F. Liang & A. R. Ferguson) Função não linear de resposta à temperatura para alguns parâmetros de crescimento e desenvolvimento em kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C. F. Liang & A. R. Ferguson)

Temperature is a major factor that affects metabolic processes in living organisms. Thermal time has been widely used to account for the effects of temperature on crop growth and development. However, the thermal time approach has been criticized because it assumes a linear relationship between the...
