Local adaptation: Overview, Effects of Gene Flow on Local Adaptation & Testing for local adaptation

Local adaptation is a mechanism in evolutionary biology whereby a population of organisms evolves to be more well-suited to its local environment than other members of the same species that live elsewhere. Local adaptation requires that different populations of the same species experience different natural selection. For example, if a species lives…
