We asked if differences in distribution between Nothofagus nitida and N. dombeyi were associated with differences in drought tolerance. Survival, gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence were measured on seedlings subjected to a gradual drought. At a predawn leaf water potential $({\rm \Psi}_{\rm m})$ of -2.7 MPa, survival of N. nitida was 50%, compared to 100% in N. dombeyi. Under well-watered conditions, the two species displayed similar stomatal conductance $(g_{w})$ and transpiration ($E$), but net photosynthesis ($A$) and instantaneous water-use efficiency $({\it WUE}_{\rm i})$ were slightly higher in N. nitida. $A$, $E$ and $g_{w}$ declined in N. nitida along the gradual drought but increased in N. dombeyi at a ${\rm \Psi}_{\...
