Strong selection barriers explain microgeographic adaptation in wild salamander populations.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2013

Richardson Jonathan L, Urban Mark C

Abstract excerpt

Microgeographic adaptation occurs when populations evolve divergent fitness advantages across the spatial scales at which focal organisms regularly disperse. Although an increasing number of studies find evidence for microgeographic adaptation, the underlying causes often remain unknown. Adaptive divergence requires some combination of limited gene flow and strong divergent natural selection among populations. In...
