Opis:
The paper includes results of measurements of the length and diameter of 12600 acorns of Quercus robur and 5099 acorns of Q. petraea collected in Poland in the mast-year 1993. Acorns of both species were compared. Significant differences in acorn length and diameter/length ratio were found. Acorns of Q. robur are somewhat larger, but both species have a large common area of variability. The scale of this variability has been determined. Geographical correlation of the size of Q. robur acorns was ascertained.

Opis:
Quercus robur and Q. petraea are important forest-forming species in Europe. Q. robur is believed to require more fertile soils, to be more tolerant to low temperatures and more sensitive to oak decline than Q. petraea. Thus chronologies of the two species from nearby localities were hypothesised to differ more strongly between species than between localities. Wood cores were collected on 23 research plots in 2 national parks and 12 forest districts. In each locality two plots (one with Q. robur and one with Q. petraea) were established in forest stands of similar age at similar site conditions wherever possible. Similarity between chronologies was assessed by the test of parallel agreement (Gleichlaufigkeit), Pearson correlation coefficients, and principal components. The plots were grouped by the Ward clustering method and according to 1st and 2nd principal components. The first 2 methods segregated chronologies nearly ideally into pairs of species from the same forest district, indicating that the chronologies differ between forest districts but not between species. Chronologies clustered in 2 large groups: northern and southern (on the basis of correlation) or northeastern and southwestern (on the basis of parallel agreement). Principal components also distinguished northeastern and southwestern chronologies, but less clearly. The results suggest that differences in climatic and soil requirements between the 2 oak species are generally too small in comparison with the differences caused by climatic factors.

Opis:
The results of measurements of 5780 acorns confirm that Quercus robur has acorns of langer size, as componed with acorns of Quercus petraea. Their length varied from 1.90 to 3.50 cm, with the average 2.71 cm, while in case of Q. petraea this characteristic varied from 1.60 to 3.50 cm, with the average 2.43 cm. The diameter of acorns was similar for both species. Dry mass of Q. robur acorns ranged from 1.054 to 4.937 g, on average 2.5924 g; in the case of Q. petraea it ranged from 0.835 to 4.796g, on average 1.8364 g. Taking into consideration the coefficient of variability of length and diameter, both species do not differ significantly. It ranged from 9 to 12%. In the case of dry mass the difference was larger and it was 23% and 28% for Q. robur and Q. petraea, respectively. The analysis of variance (F-test) showed, that the species taken as the source of variability influences significantly the length of acorns (in 17%) and dry mass (in 47%). Internal features determine these characteristics in 52% and 46%. F-test did not detect any dependence between oak species and the diameter of acorns.

Mycelial growth of the pathogenic fungus Ciboria batschiana (Zopf) Buchwald was examined at nine temperature levels between -3°C and +35°C using pure cultures of the fungus from eleven different provenances located in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovenia. The fungus was isolated mainly from cotyledons of acorns of the oak species Quercus robur L. and Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl. Even at -3°C the mycelium of the fungus grew well. There were significant differences between the provenances in respect to growth rate and temperature tolerance, especially at low temperatures.

Opis:
Iberian temperate forests are distributed along the boundary between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean biogeographical regions, and represent the south-western range edges of diverse European broadleaved deciduous tree species. Trees growing at the boundary between Atlantic and Mediterranean biomes suffer from different stresses, including increasing moisture deficit which has been identified as one of the main limitations for growth. In this work, dendrochronological techniques were employed to characterize the radial growth of Acer campestre L., Fagus sylvatica L., Fraxinus excelsior L., and Quercus robur L. in a mixed forest in northern Spain, and examine its relationships with local climate near their south-western range edges. Acer and Fagus tree-ring chronologies showed the highest common signal and the strongest responses to climate. Positive effects of precipitation, especially in the previous December and current summer, were relevant for growth of all species. Only Acer growth showed a detrimental effect of maximum diurnal temperatures in the previous autumn and current summer, while Fraxinus and Quercus growth was benefited by above-average winter temperatures. Cloud cover strongly improved the radial growth of all species, probably because cloudy conditions mitigate the detrimental effects of summer water depletion and low winter temperatures. The beneficial effects of precipitation and cloudiness on tree growth were temporally unstable and have become significant generally since the 1970s, suggesting that rising temperatures and decreasing rainfall shape radial growth-climate relationships of broadleaved deciduous trees near their southern range edges.

Opis:
Distribution of Turkish Quercus L. has a crucial value since Turkey is a transition place between Europe and Asia and located at the meeting point of three phytogeographical regions. To compare the diversity of species and to find the distribution patterns of oaks, species richness of the most current distributions were studied. Relationships of phytogeographical regions and presence of the Anatolian Diagonal relevant to oak distributions were also investigated. Analyses were performed on Davis'grid square system. The highest richness of Quercus species were found at north-western Turkey which were located in the meeting place of Asia and Europe. The lowest richness scores were found at eastern and south-eastern Anatolia. Moreover, latitude, longitude and altitude histograms showed a correlation with species richness. However, the presence of Anatolian Diagonal is partially supported.

Opis:
Oak acorns used to be an important human food, up until recent times. The major factor inhibiting their use in modern nutrition is their high tannin content. Polish oak trees were screened in order to find out whether there are any major geographical or interspecific differences in tannin and total phenolic contents in acorns, which might help us to establish further directions in the search for low-tannin individuals. We studied the level of phenolic compounds using the standard Polish and European Pharmacopoeia method, with Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and hide powder. Altogether 49 acorn samples of Quercus robur, 13 of Q. petraea, 1 of Q. pubescens (all native) and 12 of Q. rubra (introduced) were collected in different regions of Poland. The amount of investigated phenolics in Q. robur and Q. petraea acorns was similar, and tannins constituted the main component. The Q. pubescens sample was distinguished by the lowest tannin and total phenolic content and a relatively high amount of non-tannin phenolics. Q. rubra had a slightly lower tannin content than Q. robur and Q. petraea acorns, but the level of other phenolics was much higher. The results for Q. robur suggest geographical variability of phenolic content as well as a relationship between the phytochemical and biometric parameters of oak acorns.

Opis:
Climatic parameters are the main environmental factors affecting tree growth. The main aim of the presented study was to determine whether different oak species growing under contrasting environmental conditions show different sensitivity to climatic parameters. Four oak stands with Quercus robur, Quercus petraea, Quercus polycarpa and Quercus dalechampii growing in the same area were evaluated. Standard dendrochronological methods were used for sample preparation, ring width measurements, cross-dating, chronology development, and the assessment of growth-climate response patterns. Although the species grew under different environmental conditions, their local tree-ring chronologies are highly correlated. The radial growth responses to climatic parameters differ slightly, but the response depends more on local site conditions than on the oak species. At the same time, the strongest correlations between radial growth and climatic parameters were identical among species and sites. The amount of water available in the soil was the main climate-dependent factor limiting radial growth. Approximately since the 1990s, the distribution of rainfalls within the growing season has changed at the expense of spring precipitation. The significance of relative soil moisture content during spring for oak growth increased and the significance of summer values decreased.

Effects of 62 isolates (of 41 taxa) of fungi on growth of 1-year-old oak (Quercus robur) seedlings were studied in an inoculation experiment. The fungi were isolated from roots of 80–96-year-old Q. robur that had been subjected to periodic flooding and had symptoms of oak decline. The fungal genera included Alternaria, Aspergillus, Calonectria, Chaetomium, Cladosporium, Clonostachys, Corynespora, Cylindrocarpon, Dicyma, Geotrichum, Ilyonectria, Isaria, Metarhizium, Oidiodendron, Ophiostoma, Pezicula, Phialocephala, Phialophora, Pyrenochaeta, Sporendocladia, Sporothrix, Thelonectria, Trichoderma and Trimmatostroma. Mycelial colonies of fungi growing in potato-dextrose broth were used for soil inoculation. Plant growth was assessed 2 years after inoculation, when the plants were 3 years old. Stem lengths, and dry weights of stems, roots and leaves were measured. Stem growth was inhibited by 31 isolates (50%) and root growth by 12 isolates (19%). Stem growth was stimulated by two isolates (3%) and root growth by 17 isolates (27%). The overall ratio of inhibitors to stimulants was 2.1. The proportion of taxa that inhibited stem growth was 16 times greater than that which promoted stem growth. The proportion of taxa that promoted root growth was only 1.5 times greater than that which inhibited root growth. The structure of the fungal communities in periodically flooded oak forests suggests that they are more likely to inhibit than to promote vigour in oaks.

Opis:
Pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.) is considered the main commercial tree species in conditions of floodplain forests of central Europe. In the Czech Republic clear-cutting silvicultural system represents a prevailing regeneration method of oak stands in floodplain forest. The natural regeneration is limited only in stands and years with sufficient acorn production. We analysed an acorn crop periodicity and an influence of canopy opening to the acorn production in South Moravian floodplain forest, Czech Republic between 2008 and 2011, The acorn crop from trees with different growth spaces in four stand conditions (closed canopy (A), moderate open canopy (B), open canopy (C) and single growing trees (D) with unlimited growth space was analysed. The amount of acorns was determined using seed traps placed under the crowns of sample trees. The average amount of acorns in 2009 and 2011 ranged from 13 (A) to 102 (C)/m2 and from 2 (A) to 124 (D)/m2, respectively. At the same time, a considerable difference was recorded in the fructification of sample trees in the various stand situations. Significant correlations were confirmed between the amount of acorns and crown size (r2 2009=0.27, r2 2011=0.07) of parent trees and their growth space – release area (r2 2009=0.42, r2 2011=0.25) and social area (r2 2009=0.31, r2 2011=0.26). The production of acorns could be affected by establishing conditions for the pedunculate oak with a minimum crown projection area in adult trees of at least 70 m2 and/or with a minimum release area of 300 m2, it means spacing between parent trees about 10 m or 100 trees per 1 ha.

Opis:
Changing climatic conditions can have various consequences for forest ecosystems, from increasing frequencies of forest fires, ice and windstorm events to pathogen outbreaks and mass mortalities. The Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) was chosen for the evaluation of drought impact on the radial growth of trees after extensive preliminary testing of various calculated monthly climate parameters from the CARPATCLIM database. SPI was calculated for periods between 3 and 36 months for different sites (lowland and mountainous parts of Serbia, Southeast Europe), from which Quercus robur, Q. cerris, Fagus sylvatica and Pinus sylvestris samples were acquired. Bootstrapped Pearson’s correlations between SPI monthly indices and radial growth of tree species were calculated. We found that 12-month SPI for summer months may be a good predictor of positive and negative growth of different species at different sites. The strongest positive correlations for five of six tree-ring width chronologies were between 12-month June and 14-month September SPI, which implies that high growth rates can be expected when the autumn of the previous year, and winter, spring and summer of the current year, are well supplied with precipitation, and vice versa (low precipitation in given period/low growth rates).

Opis:
This study investigates the effect of climate variability on the phenotype, leaf litter decomposition intensity and seedling spread of alien red oak (Quercus rubra L.). Twenty-eight red oak forest stands located in Lithuania were evaluated. Indirect climate change indicators such as continentality were used in the analysis. Simulation of climate warming was achieved using an agro sheet cover. According to the results, the morphological traits of red oak stems in the maritime regions (warmer winters) do not differ significantly from those of red oaks stems in the continental areas of Lithuania (colder winters, more frequent spring frosts). Red oak leaf litter under an agro sheet cover (warmer conditions) decomposes at almost the same intensity as without the cover (natural conditions). The red oak seedlings spread 100 m or more irrespective of continentality. These results showed indirectly that climate change will not affect red oak stem quality or microorganism activity in the process of leaf litter decomposition. Red oak will thus remain as an invasive species, threatening composition change in native forests.

Opis:
Increased nitrogen deposition and biological invasions may be two crucial consequences of global change. Exotic plants often have adverse effects on native plants. However, there are reports of occasional positive interaction between them. Increased nitrogen deposition enhances nitrogen availability in soil, which may facilitate the growth of some exotic plant and decrease the competitive advantage of native plants because of their adaptation to low-nutrient environments. Consequently, increased nitrogen deposition may regulate the relationship between exotic and native plants. A greenhouse experiment was, thus, conducted to examine the effects of increased nitrogen deposition on the relationship between the native Quercus acutissima and the exotic Robinia pseudoacacia, which are both widely distributed in North China. Seedlings of both species were grown in monoculture and mixture arrangements in a pot experiment with different nitrogen addition levels (i.e., 0, 2, 5, and 10 g N m–2 a–1). Nitrogen addition altered the biomass partitioning of Q. acutissima and R. pseudoacacia seedlings, with more biomass allocated to leaves and less to roots. Although R. pseudoacacia seedlings always had growth predominance over Q. acutissima seedlings, Q. acutissima was not threatened by R. pseudoacacia at the four levels of nitrogen addition during the three-month duration of the experiment. A positive interaction between the seedlings of R. pseudoacacia and Q. acutissima was found, and increased nitrogen deposition did not affect the positive interaction. Further studies are necessary to determine whether or not R. pseudoacacia is harmful to native ecosystems and should be limited for forestation in North China.

In this study, we investigated responses of the mid-successional species Acer truncatum Bunge and the late-successional species Quercus variabilis Blume to three solar illumination conditions: (1) constant low light (CL), (2) constant high light (CH) and (3) low light first and high light afterwards (LH). The last treatment was to simulate a canopy opening. Both species exhibited increases in biomass, totally and in part, and decreases in leaf water content, specific leaf area and chlorophyll concentrations in LH treatment compared to CL treatment. For A. truncatum, exposure to high light condition (LH) increased crown area, and decreased root to shoot ratio, stem mass ratio and leaf perimeter. However, for Q. variabilis, LH treatment increased stem diameter at ground height, effective quantum yield, photochemical quenching and decreased maximum photosystem II quantum yield. The biomass allocation pattern did not change in Q. variabilis among three light conditions. With respect to newly developed leaves, no significant differences were found in leaf size of Q. variabilis between LH treatment and CH treatment while that of A. truncatum decreased in LH treatment. All chlorophyll fluorescence parameters in newly developed oak leaves in LH treatment increased compared to those of CH treatment while no difference was found for A. truncatum between LH and CH treatment. A. truncatum displayed a greater overall plasticity than Q. variabilis although the oak seedlings have a greater plasticity with respect to chlorophyll concentration and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters. A. truncatum should be a better candidate for vegetation recovery, especially in places with heterogeneous light conditions.

Opis:
Quercus alnifolia is an endemic species in Cyprus, and it is rated as Vulnerable (VU) in the Red List of Oaks. Although Q. alnifolia has a great ecological importance, there are only few studies about this species. In this work we have studied the natural variability of this species by analyzing acorn dimensions, acorn mass, length of embryo, moisture content of acorns and seed germinability among the seven acorn provenances, collected in Cyprus. We also determined the seeds responses to drying. Germination trials were also carried out, and differences in seed germination among populations were examined. Rate of water loss and its effect on seed germination was also estimated by application of specific desiccation treatments. The results showed that acorn characteristics significantly differed between the populations, following a general trend to reduce their dimensions and mass with the altitude increase. Seed germination was high for all studied populations, and germination behaviour was similar for all populations. Desiccation of acorns below 35% resulted in a great reduction of seed germination capacity.
