Pinus halepensis Mill., Quercus ilex L. and Quercus pubescens Willd. represent the dominant tree cover in the Mediterranean forests of southern France. However, their contributions to the French and global forest C and nitrogen (N) stocks are frequently overlooked and inaccurately quantified and little is known about to what extent the ongoing climate change can alter these stocks. We quantified the soil organic C (SOC) and N (SN) stocks in Mediterranean forests dominated by these tree species and evaluated to what extent an experimental precipitation reduction (about −30% yearly) affects these stocks and the litter decomposition efficiency. Litter mass losses were 55.7, 49.8 and 45.7% after 24 months of decomposition in Q. ilex, Q. pubescens and P. halepensis forests, respectively, and were 19% lower under drier climatic conditions. The SOC stocks were 14.0, 16.7 and 18.5 Mg ha−1 and the SN stocks were 0.70, 0.93 and 0.88 Mg ha−1 in Q. ilex, Q. pubescens and P. halepensis forests, respectively. The shallowness and stoniness of these Mediterranean forests could explain these limited stocks. By distinguishing the organic from the organo–mineral layer, we showed 74% less SOC in the organic layer of the P. halepensis forest under drier conditions, while no difference was detected in the organo–mineral layer or in the two oak forests. This last finding deserves further investigation and points out the necessity to distinguish the organic from the organo–mineral layer to detect the first impacts of climate change on SOC stocks.

The short-term impacts of the pathogen on tree physiology are well known, but its capacity to cause mortality has been poorly documented. We compared the survival of four pine species affected by Diplodia shoot blight following a hailstorm: Pinus sylvestris, P. nigra, P. pinea and P. halepensis. In the case of P. sylvestris, survival in the hail-affected sites was compared with survival in other sites affected by Diplodia shoot blight with no hailstorm records. Mortality and crown condition were recorded over two years. Dendrochronological analyses were conducted to assess growth responses to drought and to test the influence of radial growth before the outbreak of Diplodia shoot blight on survival. The endophytic community, as well as the abundance of D. sapinea, was quantified by metabarcoding and qPCR respectively, and were correlated with crown damage. Crown damage was the best predictor of mortality across species. Pinus sylvestris experienced a much higher rate of mortality than P. nigra, P. pinea and P. halepensis. Two years after the outbreak, P. halepensis was the only species that could recover crown condition. Mortality was found to be unrelated to radial growth prior the outbreak. Drought responses did not correlate with mortality differences across pine species or sites. In the case of P. sylvestris, mortality was initially higher amongst diseased trees in areas affected by hailstorms than in sites not affected by hailstorms, however it tended to equalise after two years. Amongst P. sylvestris trees, crown damage correlated with a higher abundance of the pathogen. Signs of competition amongst endophytes were observed between non-defoliated and defoliated Scots pine trees following hailstorms. Our study shows that D. sapinea can cause a significant mortality to P. sylvestris. The legacy effects of crown damage can last for at least two years after an outbreak. During this time, crown damage is a good predictor of survival, and can help managers decide which trees remove after an outbreak.

Chemical interaction between Quercus pubescens and its companion species is not emphasized under drought stress / H. Hashoum in European Journal of Forest Research, vol 140 n° 2 (April 2021)

Chemical interaction and especially allelopathy and drought have been suggested to affect plant performance synergistically, i.e., that plant under drought stress would be more sensitive to allelochemicals and that exposure to allelopathic interactions could increase drought sensitivity through an inhibition of root development and mycorrhization. In this paper, we tested these hypotheses by using a controlled experiment with Quercus pubescens Mill. as a target species and three co-occurring species plus itself as source species. Allelopathic treatments consisted of annual provision of litter and monthly watering with green leaf aqueous extracts during two vegetation seasons starting from oak acorns. During the second vegetation season, a drought stress treatment was added on half of the seedlings. Allelopathy of co-occurring species reduced seedlings dimensions while Q. pubescens treatment increased it. During the second vegetation season, seedling growth rate and physiology were reduced by drought but poorly affected by allelopathic treatment. At the end of the experiment, drought stress and allelopathy from Cotinus coggygria and Pinus halepensis both reduced seedling biomass but had opposite effects on the root/shoot ratio. Drought and allelopathy did not interact significantly and, contrary to our hypothesis, there was a tendency of lower allelopathic effects under drought. Our results suggest that drought and allelopathy could additively alter seedling development, but the opposite effects of allelopathy and drought on the root/shoot ratio call for further experiments testing the interaction between these two factors.

Does recent fire activity impact fire-related traits of Pinus halepensis Mill. and Pinus sylvestris L. in the French Mediterranean area? / Bastien Romero in Annals of Forest Science, vol 77 n° 4 (December 2020)  

Public [article]  inAnnals of Forest Science > vol 77 n° 4 (December 2020) . - n° 106 Titre : Does recent fire activity impact fire-related traits of Pinus halepensis Mill. and Pinus sylvestris L. in the French Mediterranean area? Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Bastien Romero, Auteur ; Anne Ganteaume, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : n° 106 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] adaptation (biologie) [Termes IGN] écosystème [Termes IGN] forêt méditerranéenne [Termes IGN] France (administrative) [Termes IGN] fréquence [Termes IGN] génétique forestière [Termes IGN] incendie de forêt [Termes IGN] ontogenèse [Termes IGN] Pinus halepensis [Termes IGN] Pinus sylvestris [Termes IGN] résilience écologique [Vedettes matières IGN] Végétation et changement climatique Résumé : (auteur) Key message: Climate change will induce a change in fire frequency in Mediterranean region and that could impact fire-adapted plant species. We showed that fire-related traits of some pine species are strongly related to other factors than fire but the recent fire history has nonetheless an impact on the variation of key traits for different fire adaptive strategies. Context: In fire-prone Mediterranean areas, climate change is expected to exacerbate the fire pressure on ecosystems, altering the current fire regime and threatening species if they cannot acclimate. Aims: Studying intraspecific variations of some fire-related traits in relation to variation in recent fire activity is thus an important step to better understand if this acclimation is possible. Methods: We measured structural (bark thickness, shoot bulk density, self-pruning, leaf surface to volume ratio) and functional (serotiny level for Pinus halepensis only) traits in two pines species (Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris) commonly found in southeastern France and that present different fire-adaptive strategies (resilience vs resistance, respectively). Populations were sampled according to different fire frequency modalities (0 vs 1 to 2 fires) along a geographical gradient, measuring numerous environmental and plant characteristics to be used cofactors in the analyses. Results: As expected, trait variation was strongly linked to environmental and tree characteristics as well as to ontogeny overriding the effect of fire modalities, even though using integrative models with random effect. However, fire modalities had an impact on the variance of some key fire-related traits of Pinus halepensis. Conclusion: This study will help to anticipate the future response of these Mediterranean pine species and further underlines the importance of investigating chemical traits, flammability, and genetic variation of highly heritable traits, such as serotiny.

In this study, we analysed a debated habitat influenced by past human planting activities. We compared the Pinus halepensis and the P. pinea forests, belonging to the priority EU habitat 2270*, by means of ecological features provided by the Ellenberg indicator values and diagnostic species selected from “Vegetation of Europe” classes and the “Italian Interpretation Manual of the Dir. 92/43/EEC”. We used 159 vegetation plots in the Italian Peninsula, covering a wide range of this habitat in Italy. We found consistent ecological dissimilarities between Pinus halepensis and P. pinea forests and different diagnostic species. Moreover, P. halepensis forests hosted more diagnostic species of foredune habitats. Finally, we suggest that diagnostic species are a good indicator for studying EU habitat types resemblance, and we highlight the importance of the EU habitat 2270* in Italy, proposing two different subtypes.
