Background and Objectives: In the context of climate and environmental changes, the following question of high importance in scientific studies is: How will Norway spruce, which forms a dominant component in European mountain and boreal forests, be able to cope with the increasing frequencies and intensities of drought periods? The aim of the study was to investigate the physiological responses of eight-month-old seedlings, as a most vulnerable phase of forest tree life, for different spruce provenances, to find out variable strategies in relation to controlled drought stress. Materials and Methods: We performed an experiment under controlled conditions with spruce seedlings from a climatologically warmer stand of 410 m above sea level (a.s.l.), and a moderately cool stand of 931 m a.s.l. The soil water content, leaf predawn water potential, the osmotic potential of needles, the relative water content of needles, and the photosynthetic performance and the contents of primary metabolites (proline and abscisic acid) were investigated as indicators of the spruce seedlings’ responses to water stress. The status of the indicators was analyzed at different temporal intervals, using repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), reflecting the seedlings’ water conditions (early drought, drought, or recovery). On a daily basis, the differences among the indicators were tested with one-way ANOVA. A principal component analysis (PCA) was used to identify the provenance-specific responses of tree drought indicators in a multi-dimensional data set. Results: The responses to drought stress differed between the provenances. Whereas seedlings of ‘warm’ provenance from a low altitude performed a conservation strategy, with high amounts of accumulated abscisic acid and closing the stomata faster, the reactions of ‘cool’ provenance seedlings from a higher altitude were not so sensitive and the plants’ water supply and photosynthetic performance remained significantly higher. These findings indicate that a higher drought resistance in ‘cool’ provenance could be related to greater amounts of proline amino-acids, which are accumulated from the beginning of the drought simulation. Furthermore, proline accumulation resulting in increased stress tolerance is controlled through another mechanism than osmotic adjustment. Conclusions: The observed variations in the regulatory mechanisms used to develop adaptive strategies in different provenances are an important factor for seedling survival under a changing climate.},

In parallel, genotyped trees were also scored for physiological traits (PSII thermotolerance, chlorophyll a fluorescence kinetics, partly gas exchange, assimilatory pigments, needle osmotic potential). For the detection of natural selection imprints, we used different methods: analysis of FST-outliers, testing of SNP–climate associations and SNP–phenotype associations. FST-outlier analysis revealed 2 SNPs with signals of selection. Moreover, three other SNPs showed significant association with latitude or bioclimatic variables; one of them (C/T polymorphism in a gene coding for serine/threonine phosphatase) was significantly associated with needle osmotic potential and marginally with other drought-related physiological traits. That may indicate its role in drought-stress response. In addition, T/C polymorphism in a gene coding for reduced epidermal fluorescence 4 was found to be involved in heat-stress response. However, migration history seems to be a more important driver of differentiation at SNPs in the studied candidate genes than recent adaptation.},

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in seven candidate genes for drought and heat tolerance identified in earlier studies were studied in 13 populations of Abies alba Mill. covering the eastern and southeastern half of the distribution range. Trees were planted in a provenance trial plot of the international experiment IUFRO 2005 in Hertník, Slovakia. In parallel, genotyped trees were also scored for physiological traits (PSII thermotolerance, chlorophyll a fluorescence kinetics, partly gas exchange, assimilatory pigments, needle osmotic potential). For the detection of natural selection imprints, we used different methods: analysis of FST-outliers, testing of SNP–climate associations and SNP–phenotype associations. FST-outlier analysis revealed 2 SNPs with signals of selection. Moreover, three other SNPs showed significant association with latitude or bioclimatic variables; one of them (C/T polymorphism in a gene coding for serine/threonine phosphatase) was significantly associated with needle osmotic potential and marginally with other drought-related physiological traits. That may indicate its role in drought-stress response. In addition, T/C polymorphism in a gene coding for reduced epidermal fluorescence 4 was found to be involved in heat-stress response. However, migration history seems to be a more important driver of differentiation at SNPs in the studied candidate genes than recent adaptation. |

were investigated in a control (well-watered) and a drought treatment. For each provenance,
the water potential values (Ψw) towards the end of the experiment were found low, indicating
a severe water stress. However, there were not observed significant differences in decreasing Ψw
values between the studied provenances. There were also recorded significant decreasing osmotic
potential values (Ψs) influenced by drought. In the saplings of the PV2 provenance, the plants
deprived of watering (drought treatment) showed the largest decrease of osmotic potential values.
All provenances showed significant impacts of drought on the content of assimilatory pigments
(Chl a, Chl b, Chl a + b, Chl a/b, Chl/Car). Nevertheless, the observed changes in individual
provenances did not differ significantly. The analysis of the response to the controlled water deficit
confirmed that the proline content increased significantly for all provenances. The largest increase
in the proline concentration was observed in PV2 provenance. These results imply that the most
sensitive to water deficit was the provenance PV2 from the optimal ecological beech area.},
