Origin of white oak in
Lithuania?
A line of English oaks at the 8th teaching building of ASU,
where the first tree to the left (marked with an arrow) is of
H4 haplotype (German line) and the test are of H5-7
haplotype from the refugium in the Balkans. DNA
extracted rom buds.

1. Spatial genetic structure
Possible structure in “naturally” regenerated and planted
stand
Naturally regenerated may form
clusters, the parents may be
related … .
Planted for SO seed: higher
diversity, no spatial clusters =
more genetically sound

Methods
• 12 loci (4 PSYL from cDNA, 7 polymorphic such
as SPAC series)
• 3 multiplexes, DNA sequencer, work at ASP.
• Bayesian clustering with STRUCTURE (no loc
priors, 100 000 iterations & burn ins, 15 reps.)
• Followed by Harvest and the deltaK to decide
on optimum number of clusters
• Spatial Autocorrelation in GeneAlex

Is the seed tree regeneration
method genetically sound?
Spatial genetic structure
Jonava 2 (111/13)
Planted & seed tree regenerated
in 1935
• 4 groups
• 3 more or less spatial
continuous (groups 1 to 3)
• One intermixed (group 4)=
perhaps represents the
refilled trees to support
natural regeneration
• Such spatial clusters may
form after natural

Conclusion
Conclusions
• There are 2-4 discrete genetic groups in 1 ha area of natural
stands.
• The genetic kinship of these groups uncertain ( work with
Colony for family structure)
• In natural self-regenerating stands the spatial genetic
structure is random, where the genetic groups are intermixed
(= lower inbreeding in the progeny).
• After seed tree regeneration system spatially continues
groups may form, which may increase inbreeding in the
progeny (= need for genetic enrichment planting)
Effect of establishment method
Higher inbreeding in natural
regeneration
Complex spatial genetic structure in artificial
stands (seed orchard, Saliskes)
Effect of tending
• Overall (A1 versus A2)
• Retrospective modelling:
– Tending (juvenile stage)
– Thinning premature stage (commercial/tending)
Managed versus unmanaged
• Seemingly similar at age of 100
Managed versus unmanaged
Managed (less groups)
1 group lost in managed
stand?
Less rare alleles in
managed stand
Unmaged (less inbreeding)
Retrospective modeling of thinning
Ho and morphotype connection?
More homozygotes young stand than
mature
Is D connected to Ho?

diversity

EFFECTS

studies

Conclusions
• Natural spatial genetic structure is random,
approx. 3 groups
• Natural regeneration leads to solid groups
with high risk for inbreeding
• Diversity of artificial planting is similar to
naturally-born stands
• Thinning <30 % no significant effects, >30%
rare alleles lost
• Sample size = 20-25
Effects of warm winters
• 1st year is for free growth and no true
dormancy.
• 1st years seedlings are sensitive to
temperature fluctuations(milijonai).
• Question: amplitude of warm spels,
timing and pop effect ?
