High rates of gene flow by pollen and seed in oak populations across Europe.

High rates of gene flow by pollen and seed in oak populations across Europe.

Gene flow is a key factor in the evolution of species, influencing effective population size, hybridisation and local adaptation. We analysed local gene flow in eight stands of white oak (mostly Quercus petraea and Q. robur, but also Q. pubescens and Q. faginea) distributed across Europe. Adult tree...
