Résumé
Under the same environmental conditions, southern and northern populations of temperate and boreal ecosystems exhibit different growth performance. However, which growth trait drives this difference is still unresolved. This study aimed to disentangle the effect of duration and rate of growth on shoot extension of five black spruce [Picea mariana (Mill.)] populations originating from a latitudinal gradient in Quebec, Canada, and growing in a common garden at the southern border of the boreal forest to simulate warming conditions. Bud phenology was monitored weekly during the growing seasons 2017–2019, and shoot length was recorded in autumn, representing annual growth of the primary meristem. Populations originating from the colder sites showed a lower annual shoot increment compared to those originating from the warmer sites. Despite similar durations of bud phenology, the period of shoot extension occurred between the beginning of June and the beginning of July and was longer in the provenances originating from the colder sites. The period of shoot extension, on average, was shortened by 0.9 days for each degree Celsius of increase in annual mean temperature of the site of origin. Moreover, the populations originating from warmer sites showed higher growth rates, which increased by 0.1 cm day−1 for each degree Celsius of increase in the annual mean temperature of the site of origin. Our results confirmed ecotypic variation in growth performance among black spruce populations and demonstrated that differences in shoot length are related to both rate and duration of growth. In the context of a warming climate, northern populations may be unable to reach the current growth performance of southern ones because of their adaptations to harsh local conditions and low intrinsic growth rates.
