It is shown that a linked cline induces a step in the frequency of a neutral allele, which is proportional to the gradient in neutral allele frequency and to the inverse of the recombination rate. A barrier to dispersal or a local region of low abundance has a similar effect (Nagylaki, 1976). The cline will block the flow of neutral alleles over a region of chromosome roughly 2s/t map units long. However, a slightly advantageous allele will be little affected, and must be very tightly linked to be delayed for long."}],"acknowledgement":"I would like to thank Dr G. M.
