Results
P.halepensis > P.pinaster ≥ P. pinea >> P.nigra ≥ P.sylvestris
Conclusions
Mediterranean pines
High mountain pines
Lower, shallow root growth
Higher root hydraulic resistance
Higher and deeper root growth
Lower root hydraulic resistance
Lower competitive capacity in conditions of low water availability: experiencing stronger water stress
More sensitive to frost induced embolisms
General Conclusions
Differences at root level in hydraulic response to temperature, growth patterns and respiration patterns are in accordance with the present patterns of spatial segregation
These data can help to predict the potential distribution of these species in Spain under future climatic change conditions.
Thank you!
