Gene flow and local adaptation in trees
O Savolainen, T Pyhäjärvi, T Knürr - Annu. Rev. Ecol. Evol. Syst., 2007 - annualreviews.org
Populations are locally adapted when populations have the highest relative fitness at their
home sites, and lower fitness in other parts of the range. Results from the extensive …
