Recent methodological advances in quantitative wood anatomy have provided new insights into the climatic responses of radial growth at the scale of cell structure of tree rings.This study considered long-term chronologies of tracheid measurements,indexed by a novel approach to separate their specific climatic responses from signal recorded in cell production(closely reflected in tree-ring width).To fill gaps in understanding the impact of climate on conifer xylem structure,Scots pine(Pinus sylvestris L.)trees>200 years old were selected within the forest-steppe zone in southern Siberia.Such habitats undergo mild mois-ture deficits and the resulting climatic regulation of growth processes.Mean and maximum values of cell radial diameter and cell wall thickness were recorded for each tree ring.Despite a low level of climatogenic stress,components of cell chronologies independent of cambial activity were sep-arated to obtain significant climatic signals revealing the timing of the specific stages of tracheid differentiation.Cell expansion lasted from mid-April to July and was impacted similarly to tree-ring width(stimulated by precipitation and stressed by heat),maximum cell size formed late June.A switch in the climatic responses of mean anatomical traits indicated transition to latewood in mid-July.Secondary wall deposition lasted until mid-September,suppressed by end of season temperatures.Generally,anatomical climatic responses were modulated by a less dry May and September compared with summer months.
