  - 'Random genetic drift shifts clines in space, alters their width, and distorts
    their shape. Such random fluctuations complicate inferences from cline width and
    position. Notably, the effect of genetic drift on the expected shape of the cline
    is opposite to the naive (but quite common) misinterpretation of classic results
    on the expected cline. While random drift on average broadens the overall cline
    in expected allele frequency, it narrows the width of any particular cline. The
    opposing effects arise because locally, drift drives alleles to fixation—but fluctuations
    in position widen the expected cline. The effect of genetic drift can be predicted
    from standardized variance in allele frequencies, averaged across the habitat:
    〈F〉. A cline maintained by spatially varying selection (step change) is expected
    to be narrower by a factor of  relative to the cline in the absence of drift.
    The expected cline is broader by the inverse of this factor. In a tension zone
    maintained by underdominance, the expected cline width is narrower by about 1
    – 〈F〉relative to the width in the absence of drift. Individual clines can differ
    substantially from the expectation, and we give quantitative predictions for the
    variance in cline position and width. The predictions apply to clines in almost
    one-dimensional circumstances such as hybrid zones in rivers, deep valleys, or
    along a coast line and give a guide to what patterns to expect in two dimensions.@eng'
