İngilizce - İngilizce
Transfer of genes from one population to another of the same species, as by migration or the dispersal of seeds and pollen. Introduction of genetic material (by interbreeding) from one population of a species to another, thereby changing the composition of the gene pool of the receiving population. The introduction of new characteristics through gene flow increases variability within the population and makes possible new combinations of traits. In humans, gene flow usually comes about through human migration
