VCF file with SPET sequencing data of "DroughtMarkers" project
A data set of 515 individual trees was collected from five beech stands in the South-Eastern Romanian Carpathians along an altitudinal gradient associated with changes in precipitation and temperature. Solomon34 was later removed, because it is not Fagus sylvatica. The beech stands are referred to as Lempes, Tampa, Solomon, Lupului and Ruia. In Ruia, 110, in Lupului and Lempes 101, in Solomon 102 and in Tampa 99 trees were sampled. Lempes was the lowest elevation site at 550 to 600 m with the lowest mean annual precipitation of 712 mm, followed by Tampa located at 650-700 m with 791 mm, Solomon at 800 to 900 m with 855 mm and Lupului at 1000 to 1150 m with 957 mm mean annual precipitation. Ruia was the highest location at 1300 to 1450 m with the highest mean annual precipitation of 1023 mm. The tree stands are naturally regenerating and were established more than 100 years ago.
