Response of subarctic tree seedlings to solar UV radiation

2002

Turunen, M. (University of Lapland, Rovaniemi (Finland). Arctic Centre) | Suttinen, M. L. | Derome, K. | Norokorpi, Y. | Lakkala, K.

The response of Betula pubescens Ehr., B. pendula Roth and two provenances of Pinus sylvestris L. to solar ultraviolet radiation were investigated in a UV exclusion field experiment during the 1997-1999 growing seasons in Finnish Lapland. The seed-grown seedlings were grown under UV-B exclusion and UV-B/UV-A exclusion as compared to control treatment and ambient plants. The only significant impacts of UV exclusion were found in P. sylvestris provenance Enontekio. Longer-term field studies are needed to detect the cumulative characteristics of the UV responses
