Within-canopy variation in needle morphology and anatomy of vascular tissues in a sparse Scots pine forest
Original language description
In conifers the needle is the key organ for photosynthesis and transpiration, and these two processes are influenced by the morphological and anatomical structure of the needle. Although many factors are involved in needle development, long-term irradiance gradients through the canopy as well as across the forest are among the main drivers. The present study had two principal objectives: (1) to obtain a better knowledge of the morphological and anatomical parameters of sun, transient and shade needles taken from different azimuthal orientations of a sparse Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stand; and (2) to scale up these needle data to the forest stand level. One-year-old needles were collected from mature Scots pine trees from branches on the south- and the north-facing azimuthal sides of the canopy at three different canopy heights. Needle structural parameters were measured on cross sections at the needle base. Azimuthal sides of the canopy had no effect on the needle morphology and
