Popis: | Incomplete knowledge of carbon (C) allocation dynamics in trees hinders accurate modeling and future predictions of tree growth. We studied C allocation dynamics in a mature Pinus sylvestris L. dominated forest with a novel analytical approach, allowing the first comparison of: (i) magnitude and delta C-13 of shoot, stem and soil CO2 fluxes (A(shoot), R-stem and R-soil), (ii) concentration and delta C-13 of compound-specific and/or bulk non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) in phloem and roots and (iii) growth of stem and fine roots. Results showed a significant effect of phloem NSC concentrations on tracheid growth, and both variables significantly impacted R-stem. Also, concentrations of root NSCs, especially starch, had a significant effect on fine root growth, although no effect of root NSC concentrations or root growth was detected on R-soil. Time series analysis between delta C-13 of A(shoot) and delta C-13 of R-stem or delta C-13 of R-soil revealed strengthened C allocation to stem or roots under high C demands. Furthermore, we detected a significant correlation between delta C-13 of R-stem and delta C-13 of phloem sucrose and glucose, but not for starch or water-soluble carbohydrates. Our results indicate the need to include C allocation dynamics into tree growth models. We recommend using compound-specific concentration and delta C-13 analysis to reveal C allocation processes that may not be detected by the conventional approach that utilizes bulk organic matter. |
