Abstract The spring Chinese cabbage〔Brassica campestris L. ssp. pekinensis(Lour)Olsson〕was easily bolting prematurely after having experienced low-temperature vernalization.To this phenomenon,this paper used F1 hybrid‘Yangchun’as testing material to study the green devernalization,seed devernalization in illumination culturing box,and green devernalization in greenhouse condition.The results showed that high-temperature could cause Chinese cabbage devernalization,and the result of devernalization turned better and better along with the time of hightemperature treatment prolonged. And the seed devernalization effect was better than that of green devernalization. The genomic DNA methylation level detection showed that vernalization would make the plant de-methylation,while devernalization treatment would indu ce re-methylation.
