Genetic differences within natural and planted stands of Quercus petraea

Abstract: Five sessile oak [Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl.] stands from the Czech Republic were studied to learn about the impact of different types of forest management regimes on the genetic differences among tree populations and on population structures. One population had not been markedly affected by human activity, two populations represented unplanted stands that were extensively managed for a long period of time using the coppice system, and two populations were planted stands. Approximately 100 trees from each stand were mapped and subsequently genotyped using 10 nuclear microsatellite loci. We determined the spatial genetic structure of each population and the genetic differentiation among the populations. We found that: (i) the populations were genetically differentiated, but the differences between the unplanted and planted stands were not markedly significant; (ii) the genetic differentiation among the populations depended on the geographical distribution of the populations; (iii) within unplanted stands, a strong spatial genetic structure was seen; and (iv) within planted stands, no spatial genetic structure was observed. Our findings implies that the analysis of spatial genetic structure of the sessile oak forest stand can help reveal and determine its origin.
