title: Early Post-Germination Physiological Traits of Oak Species Under Various Environmental Conditions in Oak Forests
abstract: Early post-germination physiological responses determine oak seedling establishment success under changing environmental conditions. This study investigated four oak species (Quercus cerris, Q. frainetto, Q. petraea, and Q. pubescens) through direct seeding experiments across four locations in Serbia representing varying habitat conditions. Physiological parameters (quantum yield of photosystem II, total stomatal conductance, and leaf vapor pressure deficit) were measured intensively during the
