In general, new table grape varieties in Romania are obtained through intraspecific hybridization, which represents a method of improvement of grapevine varieties, with multiple possibilities, far from being completed. This method has as target the hybridization of two or more varieties, so that the new variety will contain new, superior characters and features in comparison with the one found in the genitors (parents). Thus, in the present paper frost resistance of some table grape varieties obtained in Romania with genitors from the Cardinal and Afuz ali genitors, as mother or father, has been analyzed, taking as witnesses these two varieties due to the fact that they are well-known in the wine-growing practice as being the most sensible-to-frost varieties from the table grape varieties group (Cardinal: --150-180C, Afuz Ali: -160-180C). The obtained results highlight the fact that the dimension of the hereditary transmission of the frost resistance to the descendants depends highly on the genitor varieties resistance to this factor, as well as the period and the level of the destructive temperatures recorded in the rest of the vine.
