While temperature is widely acknowledged as a key driver of growth initiation in temperate trees, the relative contributions of air and soil temperatures remain poorly quantified. In addition, the role of temperature in regulating the cessation of wood formation has received limited attention. In this study, we monitored intra-annual wood formation of <em>Picea koraiensis</em> and <em>Larix olgensis</em> across an altitudinal gradient and assessed seasonal variation in NSC concentrations in leaves, xylem, and phloem in Changbai Mountain. Growth onset was delayed by 3.3 per 100 m increase in altitude for <em>Picea</em> and 2.5 days for <em>Larix</em>. <em>Picea</em> initiated growth earlier and ceased later than <em>Larix</em>, reflecting species-specific phenological strategies. Growth onset was primarily driven by cumulative thermal conditions, particularly growing degree days, whereas cold degree days emerged as the sole temperature-related factor significantly associated with growth cessation. Despite contrasting seasonal patterns of NSC dynamics between deciduous <em>Larix</em> and evergreen <em>Picea</em>, the mobilization of NSCs was closely synchronized with cambial activity in both species. Starch concentrations reached their annual minima, and sugar concentrations peaked during periods of maximum width of cell enlargement and wall thickening, suggesting a conserved physiological mechanism for carbon utilization during xylem development. These findings reveal the interplay between temperature, phenology, and NSC dynamics in regulating xylem growth and carbon allocation. By elucidating these processes, this study advances our understanding of how temperate forests may respond to shifting climatic conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11758,"journal":{"name":"Environmental and Experimental Botany","volume":"233 ","pages":"Article 106141"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143815047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to understand the physiological response of this emblematic seagrass to multiple stresses, with an emphasis on evaluating the acclimatory capacity of juvenile leaves to low temperatures during winter in three sites with a contrasting exposure to heavy metals of anthropogenic origin in the Mediterranean coast near Cadaqués (NE Spain). Heavy metal concentrations together with multiple physiological stress markers, including the capacity of photo- and antioxidant protection and the extent of lipid peroxidation, were evaluated. Shoots from the three studied sites accumulated foliar concentrations of heavy metals that were higher than reference threshold values, especially for Cu, which showed a decreasing concentration gradient from the coast to the open sea. The maximum photochemical efficiency of Photosystem II (PSII) (<em>F</em><sub>v</sub>/<em>F</em><sub>m</sub> ratio) of juvenile leaves was sensitive to low temperatures, despite values attained did not indicate damage to PSII, which was confirmed with studies of recovery of the <em>F</em><sub>v</sub>/<em>F</em><sub>m</sub> ratio and the absence of symptoms of photo-oxidative stress. However, the presence of heavy metals seemed to negatively influence PSII photochemistry, as sites with the highest Cu concentrations also showed the lowest <em>F</em><sub>v</sub>/<em>F</em><sub>m</sub> ratios during spring, even though water temperature had already warmed. <em>F</em><sub>v</sub>/<em>F</em><sub>m</sub> values attained were not recoverable after an extended dark acclimation period, thus indicating damage to PSII. Heavy metals did not seem to exert a negative synergistic effect with low temperatures but rather affected the physiological performance of newly produced juvenile leaves during spring. Despite the great capacity of this species to adapt to multiple stresses, results underscore the need to urgently reduce the current human footprint on seagrass meadows in the Mediterranean basin.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11758,"journal":{"name":"Environmental and Experimental Botany","volume":"233 ","pages":"Article 106131"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143726001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
