Abstract excerpt
Pollen dispersal and gene flow in the grass meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.) were studied using two populations which were homozygous for different allozymes at the Gpi-2 locus. The populations were established in a concentric donor-acceptor field experiment. Gene flow was found mainly to be affected by the distance between the donor and acceptor plants. Analysing 21 132 acceptor plant progenies, gene flow...
