Detailed explanation-1: -Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Such movement may be due to migration of individual organisms that reproduce in their new populations, or to the movement of gametes (e.g., as a consequence of pollen transfer among plants).

Detailed explanation-2: -Fundamentals of Molecular Evolution* Gene flow is the transfer of genetic material from one population to another. Gene flow can take place between two populations of the same species through migration, and is mediated by reproduction and vertical gene transfer from parent to offspring.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic flow, also called gene migration, is the transfer of genes between different populations through migration. Immigration is when new organisms join a population, changing allele frequencies. Emigration is when members of a population leave, taking with them their genes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Migration, also called gene flow, occurs both with the advancing front of a population when it is colonizing new areas, and when genes of two or more populations mix through pollen and seed dispersal.

Detailed explanation-5: -Gene flow is a fundamental agent of evolution based on the dispersal of genes between populations of a species. It involves the active or passive movement of individual plants, animals, gametes, or seeds.
