“…The confluence of these factors generates a multitude of environmental conditions on a fine scale, which are reflected in the distribution, composition, and functioning of the Quercus pyrenaica forests. Quercus pyrenaica woodlands are highly diverse at all organization levels, from a genetic perspective, i.e., high levels of genetic differentiation within species [43] and differences between populations [86]-to ecosystem-functioning level, i.e., diversity in terms of primary production and growth [78,79], and diversity of resilience to disturbances e.g., [11]. Such ecological heterogeneity is also made evident by the accompanying plant communities, which are very different depending on the oak population considered, such differences being correlated with the differences in environmental conditions among populations.…”
