Regional heterogeneity and gene flow maintain variance in a quantitative trait within populations of lodgepole pine

Genetic variation is of fundamental importance to biological evolution, yet we still know very little about how it is maintained in nature. Because many species inhabit heterogeneous environments and have pronounced local adaptations, gene flow between differently adapted populations may be a persis...
