Phenology is a key bioindicator of climate change; however, the genetic and environmental drivers of phenological traits still remain poorly understood. The authors analyzed large-scale patterns of bud burst and bud set (i.e. of vegetation period length) in Eastern European Scots pine provenances to assess the influence of climatic factors and the role of inheritance in phenological adaptation. Phenological traits were correlated with climatic variables and modelled with linear transfer regression analyses using historical data from provenance experiments in Hungary. The results demonstrate that phenological traits of Scots pine populations exhibit a genetically determined clinal variation pattern and strong correlations between bud burst, bud set and temperature-related variables. The findings challenge opinions that emphasize plasticity in spring phenology and photoperiodic control of autumn growth cessation. The hypothesis of rapid plastic adaptation to changing climatic conditions is not supported by our results. The patterns of phenotypic diversity require a critical consideration in adaptive forest management strategies.
