Variability of needle structure in Siberian stone pine in provenance plantations
Siberian stone pine (Pinus sibirica Du Tour) is one of the most common trees in Siberia. Its natural range is from the Ural Mountains to the Aldan river and from the Arctic Circle to northern Mongolia. The climate in natural Siberian stone pine sites influences the whole plant organism, particularly...

Siberian stone pine (Pinus sibirica Du Tour) is one of the most common trees in Siberia. Its natural range is from the Ural Mountains to the Aldan river and from the Arctic Circle to northern Mongolia. The climate in natural Siberian stone pine sites influences the whole plant organism, particularly its needle structure, and the response to this occurs at specific morphological and anatomical levels. The genotypical and environmental effects on needle structure in different Siberian stone pine ecotypes are very little known. One effective way to examine and to separate genotypical effects from environmental ones is by using a common garden experiment. The purpose is to analyze morphological and anatomical needle variability in Siberian stone pine marginal populations that have been grown in provenance plantations in southern West Siberia, Russia. The needle samples were collected in the provenance plantation located 30 km south of Tomsk (the southeastern West Siberian Plain, southern limit of the taiga zone, optimum site conditions for Siberian stone pine). We investigated the grafts of mother trees taken from natural sites. Four ecotypes were selected for the study. Three ecotypes originated from northern (Urengoy), western (Neviyansk), and eastern (Severobaikalsk) marginal populations. The fourth, the Tomsk ecotype, was a local control.
