...AGF can also reduce the loss of genetic diversity and lineages by migrating individuals from divergent rear edge populations at high risk of extirpation (Hampe & Petit 2005, Alberto et al. 2013) into populations that have a higher probability of persisting....

...For example, populations of many temperate and boreal tree species show local adaptation to climatic variables, particularly for phenological traits and growth rates (Savolainen et al. 2007, Aitken et al. 2008, Alberto et al. 2013)....

...While the traditional polygenic model of Fisher (Fisher, 1918, 1930) is based on small effects at a very large number of loci, some models of selection predict larger effect sizes (Orr, 1998; Yeaman & Whitlock, 2011)....
