Adaptation of forest trees in northern latitudes

General on adaptation

Forest tree populations have reached certain degrees of adaptation, over many generations, to local climate and photoperiod conditions. In northern latitudes the adaptation is strongly related to survival and reproduction under conditions with long, cold winters and short summers. In these areas, early cold acclimation rhythms are usually the most critical factor for survival.
