and 600 mm), while the provenance of C. balansae Río Seco was only significantly
affected under 600 mm. An opposite behavior was observed in the provenance of
C. balansae × C. saltensis hybrid (Pintascayo), with a significant increase of the dry
weight when exposed to 600 mm, with respect to those under 1200 mm treatment.

Cedrela seedlings growing under four simulated annual rainfall regimes: (a) 1200 mm/year, (b)
1000 mm/year, (c) 800 mm/year, and (d) 600 mm/year. Values are means of ten different measurements. (From Ruiz et al. 2013)
