Strategies for the conservation of endangered freshwater pearl mussels (Margaritifera margaritifera L.): a synthesis of Conservation Genetics and Ecology (2010, background): “Maintaining genetic variability of pearl mussels to avoid the effects of genetic stochasticity on small populations is important and can include the re-establishement of gene flow between closely related populations, the so-called migration rescue (Lenormand, 2002).”
Spatial and temporal scales of adaptive divergence in marine fishes and the implications for conservation (2006, methodology): “Studies of clinal variation across ecological gradients, like that of Koehn et al. (1980), are an especially useful method for examining the relationship between adaptation and gene flow (Slatkin, 1973; Lenormand, 2002).”
Managing microevolution: restoration in the face of global change (2003, background): “When such “gene swamping” occurs, migration between habitats can lead to the accumulation of genetic load in the populations receiving non-local propagules (Lenormand 2002).”
Potential for evolutionary responses to climate change – evidence from tree populations (2013, background): “Many models suggest that gene flow could limit adaptation, and even more so with asymmetrical gene flow toward small peripheral populations (see Lenormand, 2002 for review).”
Genetic differentiation within multiple common grassland plants supports seed transfer zones for ecological restoration (2017, background): “Secondly, phenotypic differentiation and local adaptation may also be affected by drift or constrained by gene flow (Lenormand 2002), resulting in neutral phenotypic divergence.”
Genetic Polymorphism in Heterogeneous Environments: The Age of Genomics (2006, background): “When there is limited gene flow and differential selection between populations, the situation may become somewhat complicated (Hedrick 1995a, Kawecki & Ebert 2004, Lenormand 2002).”
Genetic variation across species’ geographical ranges: the central–marginal hypothesis and beyond (2008, background): “…substantial genetic variation, they may adaptively diverge from more central populations owing to different selective pressures and reduced gene flow (Lenormand 2002) and may therefore play a role in the maintenance and generation of biological diversity (Mayr 1970; Channell & Lomolino 2000).”
The natal dispersal of tree swallows in a continuous mainland environment (2005, background): “Ecological Society, Journal of Animal Ecology , 74 , 1080‐1090 1990; Hendry et al . 2001; Lenormand 2002 ).”
Underappreciated Consequences of Phenotypic Plasticity for Ecological Speciation (2012, background): “This effect of nonadaptive plasticity is synergistic with the potential for demographic swamping, a well-known constraint on local adaptation to novel habitats [74, 76, 87, 92].”
Implications of habitat choice for protected polymorphisms (2004, background): “In the same vein, Lenormand (2002) presents a two-patch model in which one patch can be considered as a source and is locally regulated, while the other is a sink and thus not regulated.”
The genomics of local adaptation in trees: are we out of the woods yet? (2017, background): “…we have known that gene flow can disrupt adaptation if selection is not strong enough to overcome the loss of beneficial alleles (Haldane 1930; Wright 1931; Slatkin 1987; reviewed in Felsenstein 1976, Lenormand 2002, Savolainen et al. 2007, 2013, Feder et al. 2012a, and Tigano & Friesen 2016).”
Testing for Associations between Loci and Environmental Gradients Using Latent Factor Mixed Models (2012, background): “2010), as local adaptation can be hindered by gene flow (Lenormand 2002), and can be difficult to distinguish from the effects of genetic drift and demographic history (Novembre and Di Rienzo 2009).”
Local adaptation to serpentine and non-serpentine soils in Collinsia sparsiflora (2006, background): “…(van Tienderen, 1992), and levels of gene flow between populations due to dispersal and immigration (Holt, 1996; García-Ramos and Kirkpatrick, 1997; Holt and Gomulkiewicz, 1997; Kirkpatrick and Barton, 1997; Ronce and Kirkpatrick, 2001; Kawecki and Holt, 2002; Kisdi, 2002; Lenormand, 2002).”
Identifying targets and agents of selection: innovative methods to evaluate the processes that contribute to local adaptation (2017, background): “Thus, gene flow among populations could result in the rapid spread of conditionally-advantageous alleles, homogenizing populations and eroding local adaptation (Bulmer 1972; Lenormand 2002; Hall, Lowry & Willis 2010; Anderson et al. 2013).”
