“…Because of its late budding, T. cordata is rarely damaged by spring frosts. In the same way, the early leaf fall [18,19] prevents early frost damage. Like other tree species, the response of T. cordata to temperatures is closely related to the water supply.…”

“…cordata is a drought-tolerant tree species. It is weakly, or not at all, affected by short periods of drought [14,18,20,21]. Nevertheless, in the Mediterranean region, where annual rainfalls are less than 500 mm and evaporation is high, T. cordata is still often restricted to north-facing slopes, ravines, and zones with a good water supply [11].…”

“…Its water use efficiency is very effective [24]. It develops deep roots [18] and has economical water use, notably because of the great sensitivity of its stomata [25]. According to Pigott [26], the drought tolerance of T. cordata could also be linked to an association with the mycorrhiza Cenococcum geophilum Fr.…”

“…Given the tolerance of T. cordata to water supply variations, it makes sense that it will be found across a very broad range of these factors. As regards soil texture, it can be found on soils with a high content of clay, as well as on very sandy or loamy soils, or even on screes and soils with a very high proportion of pebbles [12,18]. Weissen et al [19] only exclude it from peaty soils.…”

Tilia cordata Mill. is a minor European broadleaved species with a wide but scattered distribution. Given its scarcity and low value in the wood market, it has received little attention from researchers and forest managers. This review summarizes the main aspects of T. cordata ecology and growth. Its main limiting factor is its need for warm summer temperatures to ensure successful seed production. It has a height growth pattern relatively similar to that of Acer pseudoplatanus L., with a slight delay in the early stages. Yield tables report great productivity, especially in eastern Europe. T. cordata used to be a major species in Europe, in contrast to its present distribution, but it is very likely to receive renewed interest in the future. Indeed, with the potential change of competition between species in some regions and the need for important diversification in others, T. cordata may play an important role in forest adaptation to climate change, especially owing to its wide ecological tolerance and its numerous ecosystem services. It is necessary to increase our knowledge about its regeneration and its responses to environmental and silvicultural factors, to establish clear management recommendations.

Abstract. Mycorrhizal status of mature forest trees (horse chestnut, Aesculus hippocastanum L.; white poplar, Populus alba L.; black poplar, P. nigra L.) was investigated in urban habitats under different intensity of anthropogenic pressures (restricted root zone, soil compaction, low air and soil humidity), compared to trees grown in rural environments that were used as reference biological material. Horse chestnut roots were colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and the two poplar species (white poplar and black poplar) were dually colonized by AM and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi, regardless of habitat, except P. nigra grown close to a trafficked street, which had only ECM associations. The AM colonization of horse chestnut roots was higher in May than October, regardless of habitat and showed a tendency to be lower in the roots of trees from urban environments, however, only mycorrhizal frequency differed significantly between the urban habitat and the reference plot. In roots of two poplar species the intensity of AM colonization was significantly lower in disturbed urban habitats than in the rural sites. ECM colonization of white poplar did not differ between the urban and rural environments, and in black poplar roots it was lower at the city sites than in the reference plot. Significantly lower levels of available magnesium and total carbon was recorded in soils at the urban sites compared to reference plots. The concentrations of the other macro-and microelements did not differ significantly. A tendency to reduced water content in two of three urban sites was also recorded. The results indicated that mycorrhizal fungi native of urban habitats are able to develop effective symbiosis with mature tree roots and they suggested that environmental factors, such as availability of water and nutrient and carbohydrates production and allocation, are the most important factor influencing the mycorrhizal colonization of urban trees.
