Knowledge graph centered on cline with 71 nodes and 151 connections. Top connected: Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, Gothic, Crested Butte, Bombus, Ipomopsis aggregata.

Definition

A gradual change in a trait across an environmental gradient, where width is expected to be proportional to dispersal distance divided by square root of difference in selection between ends of the cline.
