Contribution to the study of variability in Atlas cedar

By Nezha El Bakkali

The Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica (Endl.) G.Manetti ex Carri re) is a species endemic to the mountains of Morocco and Algeria; a noble resinous species par excellence that is of interest in several respects. Indeed, thanks to its high production of high-quality timber, its longevity and resistance to compression, it is a vital source of income for the local population and provides considerable economic activity. Unfortunately, this very important natural resource is threatened by a number of decline factors, including anthropogenic activity and the rapid evolution of the climate towards drought.The aim of this work is to identify adaptive morphological and anatomical traits that can discriminate between geographically distant Moroccan cedar populations.
