Además, en el sentido de la conservación de los recursos genéticos de FRM, existen estrategias importantes para la manipulación y preservación de la capacidad de adaptación de las especies y poblaciones, como son los materiales de base (MB) y las unidades de conservación genética (UCG). El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar y actualizar la información de los mapas de procedencia de Quercus suber L. y Quercus ilex L. en España, utilizando la información del más reciente Mapa Forestal Español (MFE50) como fuente sobre la distribución de estas especies en el país. Se investigó, además, los MB identificados, seleccionados y las UCG de ambas especies, para realizar una comparación con el MFE50 y las RP. Finalmente, el objetivo central de este trabajo se enmarcó en la incorporación de la información de origen de los rodales forestales desde el mapa RP al MFE50, mediante la creación de un nuevo atributo en la base de datos. Como resultado, se encontró que el mapa de RP fue considerablemente diferente en comparación con el MFE50, presentando un incremento en el área total de la distribución de especies en el país. Se evidenció que muchas áreas del MFE50 no están presentes en el mapa de PR y su ubicación no es exacta en municipios englobados por el Sistema de RP, por lo anterior, se recomienda incorporar y actualizar. El 35% de los MB y las UCG para las dos especies no corresponden a masas forestales en el MFE50, lo que supone la necesidad de una comprobación de campo de cara a la ubicación de estos rodales que tienen una importancia ecológica significativa. Fue posible concluir que los datos disponibles en las fuentes oficiales no son precisos a todas las escalas y deben ser revisados para proporcionar datos e información apropiados respecto a los RP, los MB y las UCG.

ABSTRACT The Region of Provenance of forest trees is a system used in Spain and in many other countries in order to provide guidance for the selection and commercialization of reproductive forest materials (FRM), taking into account the environmental differences and genetic variability of trees populations. In addition, in the sense of the conservation of the genetic resources and selection of FRM, Basic Materials (BM) and Genetic Conservation Units (GCU) are also important strategies to manipulate and preserve the adaptive capacity of tree species and populations. This work aimed to analyse and updated the information of the RP maps of Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain using the most updated Spanish Forest Map (MFE50) as the most recent source of information on the forest distribution in the country. Moreover, it aimed to investigate the information regarding the Source-identified BMs, Selected BMs and GCUs of the two species in comparison with the MFE50 and the RP maps. The final objective of this work was the incorporation of the information of the origin of the forest stands from RP map to the MFE50, by the creation of a new field in its table of attributes. As a result of this study, it was found that the RP map for the two species is considerably different from the most updated MFE, presenting in general an increment in the total area of the species distribution around the regions. Also, many forest areas that are present in the MFE50 are not present in the RP map and are located in municipalities that are currently not englobed Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain.

Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 5 by this system, therefore should be incorporated and updated. Many important problems were found when analysing the maps. Furthermore, when analysing the MBs and GCUs for the two species, the location of more than thirty percent of them did not correspond to any forest stands in the MFE50 map, what supposes the necessity of a field verification on face to the location of these stands that have a seminal ecological value. It was possible to conclude that the data available in the official sources are not accurate at all scales and should be revised to provide appropriate data and information regarding RPs, MBs and UCGs.

Region of provenance of forest trees Commonly, tree species that present a wide distribution range hold great levels of standing genetic diversity (Alberto et al. 2013). The Mediterranean region represents a biodiversity hotspot, where tree species are characterised by high genetic diversity within and between populations (Fady-Welterlen 2005). Many of the tree species that are present in the Mediterranean basin are genetically diverse in terms of its latitudinal and longitudinal distribution (Atkinson, Rokas, and Stone 2007). It is also to be considered that in this region the high variability respect to microclimates, geography and abiotic factors can lead to a speciation through local adaptation (Fady and Conord 2010). When it comes to forest management practices that takes into account intraspecific variability, there is a demand for guidance on the selection of appropriated forest reproductive material and the region these materials can be deployed from their natural environment (Bower, Clair, and Erickson 2014). The genetic differences between populations characteristics, especially those related to grow, adaptation and yield, are highly important for the commercialization of reproductive forest materials (FRM). In this sense, a regionalization is established for the FRM market (European Directive 95/105) According to previous studies that analysed the adaptive capacity of tree species and populations, it was found that this characteristic is best understandable when taking into account its genetic variability and the phenotypic plasticity (Chevin, Lande, and Mace 2010; Fady et al. 2016). Although there is a lack of data on genetic variation for many native plant species, the use of a system of Regions of Provenances (or Seed Zones) is the primary guideline for seed movement and, within these geographically delimited regions, seeds of a plant species can be transferred and planted with low risk of maladaptation (Bower, Clair, and Erickson 2014). Regions of Provenances (RP) are defined as ecologically homogeneous areas in the distribution of a species and, therefore, meant to group populations that are genetically similar and prone to be locally adapted, differing in their productivity and consequently in their impact on local economies, serving as a perfect guideline to help forest management as they serve as appropriate management units. It is well known that species ecotypic variation exists, and the adoption of an RP system helps to secure that plant materials are adapted to the local habitat, a key aspect to consider when making a restoration or revegetation planning (Johnson et al. 2004). Furthermore, it also helps to maintain the populations’ capacity to adapt and respond to changes in the environment by preserving their integrity of natural genetic structure (Bower, Clair, and Erickson 2014). For these reasons, especially under a changing environment, the importance of forest genetic diversity is broadly recognised and should not be ignored when developing guidelines and indicators for forest management (Fady et al. 2016). In Spain, the Regions of Provenance were defined for those species that a certification system is applicable in order to commercialize their reproductive material. The Spanish law follows the EU and OCDE scheme regarding the regulation of plant material commercialization and regions of provenance, defining it as being a zone or a group of them, delimited for a species or subspecies, that are under homogenous ecological conditions, in which seed sources or stands present similar genetic or phenotypic characteristics, taking into account limits for altitude when appropriate (RD289/2003 Art. 2.f.). Two methods have been used in order to establish regions of provenance for forest tree species in Spain. The first one, which is known as the “agglomerative method” has been applied to the 18 main species in which a deeper knowledge regarding their distribution and variation patterns was available, generating therefore different limits for each species and regions, and conforming each region every forest stand in which the Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 7 specie is present . On the other hand, the defined as “divisive method” was based on the division of the complete territory in a limited number of regions (57 regions of provenances) ecologically uniform. This regionalisation has been applied to 39 species or genera, and the delineation were adjusted to the administrative limits (Regiones de procedencia n.d.). 1.2. The species and their Regions of Provenance Quercus suber L. cork oak as common name (“Alcornoque” in Spanish), is a widely distributed tree species in the occidental Mediterranean region. In Spain, its distribution is predominant in the southwest of the country and it ranges from Cádiz to Salamanca and, to a lesser extent, in the province of Girona, in the northeast of the country (Heredia and Gil 2006). According to the same authors, the species only started to gain more commercial value and attention in the XX century, when it started to be replanted after centuries of overexploitation for firewood and charcoal production. It is currently most cultivated for its thick and characteristic bark that can be extracted for the production of cork used as raw material for many industrial purposes. In the Iberian Peninsula, more than 90% of cork stands are located in private lands, making it difficult to create and to develop strategies and plans to improve its conservation status, as it depends on the forest owner’s goodwill to allow the progress of the forest (Martín Albertos, Díaz-Fernández, and de Miguel 1998). The delineation of the Regions of Provenances for cork oak in Spain consist on nine regions of wide use and seventeen Provenances of Restricted Area (Diaz Fernández et al, 1995, Martín et al, 1998, Alia et al, 2009), taking into account the ecological variation and geographical differentiation (Figure 1). The Provenances of Restricted Area are represented by letters and were created for the small forest that are present outside the main area of distribution of the species. Moreover, these regions correspond to the small regions with low economic interest for the commercial seed production but with a high ecological value By using a variety of molecular markers, it was possible to identify groups with different genetic structures in the Iberian Peninsula. The utilization of molecular markers allows the reconstruction of the evolutionary history of the species, through the identification of demographic and historical processes of the different populations. In general terms, the neutral diversity markers are intended to provide the differences between central populations (southwest and central “dehesas” of the Iberian Peninsula) and marginal populations (cork oak stands of the east of the peninsula) (Heredia and Gil 2006). Figure 1: Regions of Provenance of Quercus suber L. in Spain (Alía et al. 2009). Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 8 Quercus ilex L., holm oak or holly oak as common name (“encina” in Spanish), is the Mediterranean species that have been mostly used since the Ancient World mainly for firewood charcoal and animal feeding. Its importance has been higher for the population than cork oak, and in this sense has been favored. The consequence is the historical fragmentation and reduction of the area occupied by the cork oak (Heredia and Gil 2006). Holm oak distribution area extends to all the countries in the Mediterranean Basin and in Spain it appears in all the provinces, except the Canary Islands. It is considered the most characteristic species of the Mediterranean forests due to its wide distribution range in many different lithologic and climatic environments. This implies that it can appear as a dominant or secondary species in the majority of the peninsular territory, except in extremely dry environments with low soil fertility (Ramírez-Valiente et al. 2018). The climatic conditions and its uses have determined the characteristics of the forest of this species. In the littoral it presents in dense forest stands and inland it appears as open forests, frequently in the form of savannah-type ecosystem, known as “dehesas” in Spanish. (Alía et al. 2009). For the delineation of the Regions of Provenances for holm oak it has been considered the climatic similarity and the geographic contiguity that can be seen in Figure 2. There are seventeen regions of wide use and eleven Provenances of Restricted Area for this species (Jiménez et al, 1996, Martín et al, 1998, Alía et al. 2009). Figure 2: Regions of Provenance of Quercus ilex L. in Spain (Alía et al. 2009). 1.3. Conservation Indicators of the Genetic Resources The Basic Material (BM) are specific forest stands that are used in order to collect reproductive materials (seeds and plants). They are comprised of populations, plantations and clones from which the forest reproductive material is obtained to be used in reforestation (INIA 2009). The types of BM currently approved in Spain are seed sources, selected stands, seed orchards, family progenitors, clones and clone mixture. The four types of reproductive materials for many species in the country; source-identified, selected, qualified and controlled, can be collected from BM that are listed in the National Catalogue of Basic Material. The use of this system provides to stakeholders a guarantee of the origin and quality of the forest reproductive material and an information of their characteristics, facilitating at the time of choosing from which source to collect the material from and which is the most appropriated. Each of the approved BM is ecologically and phenotypically characterized in the National Catalogue and all the information Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 9 corresponding to the different admission, selection and characterization forms, and the location maps of the different units of the Catalogue are found in paper files and in the Silvadat database, developed for the management of the Catalogue (REGISTRO Y CATÁLOGO NACIONAL DE MATERIALES DE BASE n.d.). The creation of a National Registry of Genetic Conservation Units is included in the Spanish Strategy for the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Forest Genetic Resources (MIMAM, 2006) as basic elements of in-situ and ex-situ conservation strategies. In general, the selection criteria for the Genetic Conservation Units (GCU) follows certain basic principles such as: to cover the entire area of distribution of the species targeted by the network, to ensure the natural origin of the populations subject to conservation, to restrict the management regarding the possibility of using reproductive materials not coming from the population, to give preference to the selection of units in the State lands to ensure the viability of conservation, and if possible, include a mention of the unit in the forest management plan (García del Barrio et al, 2018). The National Network of in situ conservation must cover all the spatial genetic variation of the species, as well as the most frequent alleles of each population. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the sampling of populations for each species and the size of the sample within each population. In the first case, the regions of origin of the species must be the starting point for the choice of the desired number (goal) of populations to be conserved. This number must be agreed upon by the National Committee for the Improvement and Conservation of Genetic Resources at the proposal of the National Plan for the Conservation of Genetic Resources. As a basic criterion, it is proposed to take as a reference the number of RPs of the species and prioritize the identification of genetic conservation units that include several species. Finally, it is proposed to act under the concept of MBPS to build this network (INIA 2009). 2. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is, through the analysis and comparison of the current maps of the regions of provenances and the latest update Spanish Forest Map (MFE) provided by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPAMA), to analyse the changes that the current RP’s map of Spain might have suffered and to provide a new and updated Spanish Forest Map (MFE50), with information on the origins of stands and the RP for two different tree species: Quercus ilex and Quercus suber. Furthermore, to calculate for the given species indicators for the development of programmes of conservation and use of the forest genetic resources. Our specific objectives are: 1) Compare the forest stands in the two maps (Regions of Provenance and Spanish Forest Map) and test their equivalences 2) Assign to the maps a field corresponding to the origin of the stands that will be associated to the new updates of the Spanish Forest Map and the Forest Inventory. 3) Analyse the number of Basic Materials and Conservation Units for the two species in each one of their Regions of Provenances and confirm their location in a given forest stand in the MFE50. 3. MATERIAL AND METHODS 3.1. Data acquisition and preparation The analysed area comprises the whole Peninsular Spain and the Balearic Islands. The digital maps of the Regions of Provenance for, Quercus suber (cork oak) and Quercus ilex (holm oak) were provided al INIA-CIFOR. These maps are composed by several layers that included information about the species distribution and origin. For this work, Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain.

Firstly, it is important to point out that the regions “I”, “N”, “O” and “P”, where there is no forested area detected, do not present any Identified or Selected BMs as well as conservation units for Q. suber. The number of Identified Base Materials is higher in the region RP 3 and RP 7, that correspond respectively to Montes de Toledo – Villuercas and Parque de los Alcornocales – Serranía de Ronda. These two regions collectively include a total of sixty-three out of the one-hundred-and-seventyseven Identified BM, and five of them are outside any RP. A total of seventy-five Identified BM felt outside of any forest area, the majority of them in the region RP 3. This mismatch may be due to an imprecise location of the BM source. Region RP 7 also presents a high number of Selected Base Materials, only behind Sierra Morena Ocidental region, represented by the RP 5. None of the regions represented by letters comprise a Selected BM. Sixteen of this selected BMs felt outside any forested area, the majority of them in the regions RP 2 and RP 5. The number of conservation units in each RP was very homogeneous distributed amongst them and no RP have more than one GCU. Besides the regions that lack in forest area, region B also does not possess any GCU, and seven out of the twenty-one GCU felt outside forest areas. Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain.

For Q. ilex the analysis was conducted similarly to Q. suber. Figure 7 shows the initial forest area where the species is present, according to the most updated MFE, and the total area of each region of provenance. Region RP 11, named Región Extremadurense, is by far the region with the largest forested surface for holm oak in Spain. It represents a total of 3,79 million ha, equivalent to more than 45 % of the total area of distribution for the species. The second largest forested area is located in the RP 10, Sistema Ibérico, but it only accounts for 8% of the total forest area. Similar to the forest surface, the largest RP is also the Región Extremadurense (RP 11), accounting for 23 % of the total area of the RPs. That corresponds to more than 9,3 million ha and covers great part of the west midlands of Spain. The second largest RP is also RP 10, although it does not cover even half of the surface covered by the previous region, accounting for about 10 % of the total area.

Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 19 The region Extremadurense RP 11 is by far the one that gained the largest amount of forest area after the unification when compared to the other regions, increasing its surface in about 285 thousand ha (Table 5). Although in net amounts it represents a vast area, when taking into consideration that this region is the largest RP and with the most forested area, this value only accounts for an increment of 8,12 % in relation to the its initial forested area. In proportional terms the RP that suffered the greatest change in area was Sierra Nevada - Filabres (RP 16), increasing its area by more than eighty-six percent of its initial forest surface, followed by the region of Sierras Béticas Valencianas (“J”), that decreased its woodlands by more than 46%. In terms of total change in forests surface in Spain, we can observe a loss of around 225 thousand ha of forests with Q. ilex, which represents a change of only 2,77% of the total area of occurrence in the country.

Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 20 When analyzing the results for Q. ilex, for the same reason as for Q. suber, the number of polygons also increased after the unification of the maps. In this case, there was found a small difference in the total area of the initial MFE and the updated MFE, that corresponds to an error of around 0,02%. This error is directly proportional to the area covered by the original maps and the number of divisions suffered by the polygons after unifying the maps. This is caused as the values of area tend to be an approximation and the decimals of each polygon accumulates a total error that when summing their values individually resulted in this final value. When comparing the original map of the regions of provenance with the updated MFE, the area increased in around 225 thousand ha. The results of the analysis provided by Table 6 presents the results considering the total area and the total number of polygons as being the ones presented by the updated MFE. The number of polygons and the area of the MFE(i) that felt outside the area covered by the RP map was relatively low, corresponding approximately to 0,26% of the total number of polygons and 0,09% of the total area. For the number of disappeared polygons and its corresponding area, the analysis shows they were also low, differing from the values found for the number of reduced polygons and its corresponding area, that represented 10,47 and 13,21% of the total. Finally, the area where the species is dominant also increased after the unification and only a 0,01% of this area did not correspond to any area of the RP map.

It shows that the majority of the disappeared polygons corresponds to polygons from the cartographic source of AND25, produced by the autonomous community of Andalucía. 7,52% of the polygons from this source completely disappeared after the unification of the maps. Similarly, this same cartographic source showed the second highest number of polygons that reduced its size after the unification: a total of 24,71% of their polygons, only behind the cartographic source of MF_RIOJA, generated by the La Rioja’s autonomous community, that had 25,20% of their polygons diminishing in size. Similar to what occurred for Q. suber, when considering the dominance of the species, the results were more homogeneous. The number of polygons in which the species was dominant and nondominant that disappeared counted for 2,85% and 1,67% of the total number of polygons. The polygons in which the species was dominant and non-dominant that completely disappeared counted for 13,78% and 13,13% respectively of the total. Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain.

For this species there was no selected BM, so the study was made with the source-identified BM and GCU. The number of source-identified BM for Q. ilex was very heterogeneous distributed within the different regions of provenances for the species. The region of Sistema Ibérico (RP 10) and the Extremadurense (RP 11) are the two regions with the highest number of BMs, the first with one-hundred-and-thirty-one and the second with two more BMs than the first one, the two of them representing more than 36% of the total number of BMs. The only region lacking in BM was Sierras Murcianas (“H”). Although regions of Galicia-El Bierzo (“A”) and Menorca (“K”) have one BM present in their area, both of them are not located in any forest stand. Furthermore, twenty-three out of the twenty-eight RPs have BMs that are located out of forest stands where the presence of the species is not dominant. The study of the genetic conservation units showed a more homogeneous distribution, where each of the RPs presents one GCU, except for region Galaico-Leonesa (RP 1), that have two GCUs and region of Mallorca and Menorca, that do not have any GCU. Moreover, nine of the RPs have their GCUs located out of a forest stand where the species is identified as one of the three main species. Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain.

DISCUSSION With the results of this work, it was possible to infer about many aspects related to the current system of the regions of provenances in Spain, especially for the studied species; Q. suber and Q. ilex. By using the MFE50 as the latest data-source for the current species distribution in the country we could draw the changes in the forest since the creation of the regions of provenance’s map, in 2009. Both species presented in general an increase in the forest area when taking into account the whole studied territory, meaning that the area of their current distribution of the MFE50 is larger than the original RP’s map. Although holm oak in Spain is more broadly distributed when compared to cork oak, being its area almost six times greater, the changes in cork oak woodlands was more significant. While holm oak gained in total an area of 225159 ha, cork oak gained 305332 ha of forest area. A single RP of Q. suber is responsible for an increase of almost two-hundredthousand ha of forests, the region of Sierra Morena Occidental (RP 5), located in the south-west region of Spain. For Q. ilex, the Extremadurense region (RP 11), also located Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 23 in the south-west of the country, was responsible for the greater increase in forest area of this species, gaining about 285 thousand ha of forests. Additionally, both species expanded their distribution range out of their limits of the RP_diss map, meaning new forest stands of holm and cork oak are now located in municipalities that before were not part of any RP. These stands need to be incorporated in a RP based on its location and edaphoclimatic characteristics. Another important outcome of this work was taken by the analysis of the number of polygons that disappeared or reduced and its respective area. The disappeared polygons are related to areas where the forest does not exist in the MFE50 while the diminished ones are related to polygons that did not overlap completely well. In both cases the loss of forest area was mainly caused by miss-overlapping, which can be related to cartographic errors, misidentification or mislabelling and not actually a change in forest area. When we studied these aspects in respect to the cartographic source, in both cases the polygons extracted from Andalucía autonomous community (AND25) presented a high number of disappeared as well as reduced polygons. This could also indicate an error caused by a displacement of the polygons when overlapping with the MFE50, which could mean that vectors from this source might have suffered any kind of modification when incorporated to the RP_aut map. When analysing the surface area where the species is dominant, we can notice that Q. suber experienced a greater change when comparing the RP_aut and MFE50 maps, gaining almost ten percent more area of dominance in the latest map. However, the area of dominance for Q. ilex almost did not change, being 69,51% of the total area of the RP_aut map and 68,22 in the MFE50 map. This can also be explained when investigating the area where the species is dominant that is located outside any RP, which reached almost 20% of the total area outside any RP, while for Q. ilex this value was only about 10%. For both species, still considering the area where the species is dominant, the area related to the disappeared polygons tended to be slightly higher in relative terms than the area related to the reduced polygons, meaning that removed forest stands are more related to stands where the species are dominant. For Q. ilex, more than 57% of the disappeared area was forest stands where this species was dominant, which indicates a positive relationship between both aspects. Similarly, in both cases, the number of disappeared polygons where the species were dominant tended to be slightly higher when compared to the number of disappeared polygons where the species were non-dominant, indicating also a positive relationship between these two factors. Nevertheless, the number of reduced polygons did not show a significant difference between areas of dominance and non-dominance for the two species. When analysing the conservation indicators of the genetic resource for Q. suber the major issue found was the problem related to the RPs with no MBs. Besides the RPs that do not present any forest area detected in the MFE (restricted area provenance regions I, N, O, P, Q,), Moncayo (E) also lacks in source-identified BMs. Furthermore, regions of Litoral Onubense (RP6), Cuenca del Navia (B), Alpujarras (J), Pais Vasco (K), and Pinet (L) have all their source-identified BMs located outside the Q. suber forested areas. This fact implies an inconvenience at the time of collection of reproductive materials to be used in forest plantations inside the same RP, as this, together with the selected MB, are the only ways to guarantee the origin and quality of the reproductive forest material and thus to facilitate the selection of the most appropriate area of collection. For Q. ilex, only region of Sierra Almerienses (H) do not have any BM located inside the RP. Also, two other restricted area provenance regions present all their BMs out of a forest area detected in the MFE (Galicia-El Bierzo (A) and Menorca (K)). Especially for holm oak, besides the fact that these three RPs (H, A and K) present a small forest area, this implies an added problem as this species do not have any selected BM, being the source-identified BM the only way to provide to stakeholder the information on the characteristics of the reproductive forest material. Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L. in Spain. Updating the Provenance Regions Maps and Calculating Conservation Indicators for their Genetic Resources. Leonardo Antunes Salgado Santos Master Erasmus Mundus in Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources (MEDFOR) 24 The Genetic Conservation Units analysis for Q. suber also showed some problems with its distribution and locations. Even though region of Cuenca de Navia (B) is the only RP without a GCU, besides the ones without forest area, many others RPs have their GCUs mismatching any forest area of the, which is the case of Sierra Morena Oriental (4), Litoral Onubense (RP 6), Galicia-El Bierzo (A), Sierra de Guadarrama (F), País Basco (K), Pinet (L) y Duero Medio (M). Coincidently some of these regions (RP 6, K and L) also had all their BMs location not in MFE forest stand and it is important to confirm and revise this information on the field to guarantee if these problems are related to a cartographic error or if the forest stand have been actually removed from the area. The results for Q. ilex also highlighted some problems related to the GCUs. Again, one RP do not have any GCU in their area, which is the case of Mallorca (RP 17), and a total of eight regions have their GCU in a location that do not coincide with the MFE50 map, which is the case of regions Cuenca Central del Duero (RP 2), Prepirineo (RP 4), Sierras de Ávila y Segovia RP˚ 7), Sur de Guadarrama (RP 8), Sierra de Cádiz-Ronda (RP 13), Asturias (B), Monegros (F), Sierras Almerienses (H). Some of these mismatch cases would be related to the accuracy of the coordinates collected from the bibliography on studies with genetic markers of this species. In any case, field work will be necessary for establishing the location and dimension of the forest stands that could be designed as GCUs. 6. CONCLUSIONS With the main outcomes of this study it was possible to conclude that exists some unresolved questions regarding the updating of information. The analysis shows that the current data available are not satisfactory coupled. With the first part of this study we could notice that the RP_aut map and the MFE50 present some significative differences and this could be due to updating mistakes in-between forest inventories, misidentification, cartographic errors or actually a change in the species distribution area, therefore these mismatches are areas that should be revised in the field. Moreover, the system of the Regions of Provenances in Spain should also be revised, not only for the studied species relevant in this work but also for other species that had their distribution range modified in last few years. It is clear that not only forest areas disappeared from the RP map but also many new forest areas are now present in the MFE50, especially in locations that were not part of the system of RP. After the confirmation that these are new areas in which the species is present but with no RP assigned to them, they should then be incorporated in the RP map throughout an evaluation of its location and its edaphoclimatic characteristics. In the case of Q. suber, the regions “I”, “N”, “O”, “P” and “Q” should be given special attention for the fact that they do not present any forest area located in the MFE50 and an inspection has to be done to confirm this situation. The second part of this study revealed important aspects related to the Conservation Indicators of the Forest Genetic Resources. Besides the fact that some of the RPs do not present any source-identified Basic Material, many of the RPs have all BMs located in areas that do not coincide with a forest stand from the MFE50 map. This is similar when considering the Genetic Conservation Units. Furthermore, some regions do not present any GCU and also have a BM located out of a forest area, which is the case of or region Cuenca de Navia (“B”) for Q. suber and Menorca (“K”) for Q. ilex and a special attention should be given to them, as their location is known to be situated in autochthonous forest stands. Last but not least, another important outcome was the creation of scripts to for the automatization of the analysis in order to evaluate the changes in forest area and, in addition, to incorporate in the MFE50 map’s table of attributes a field that is related to the origin of the forest stands. This should therefore be used in the future National Forest Inventories in order to make this information available in the forthcoming Spanish Forest Maps.
