Difference between Gene flow and Species

Gene flow vs. Species

In population genetics, gene flow (also known as gene migration or allele flow) is the transfer of genetic variation from one population to another. In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank, as well as a unit of biodiversity, but it has proven difficult to find a satisfactory definition.

Similarities between Gene flow and Species

Gene flow and Species have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allopatric speciation, Gene pool, Genetic drift, Homo sapiens, Hybrid (biology), Morphology (biology), Speciation.

Allopatric speciation

Allopatric speciation (from the ancient Greek allos, meaning "other", and patris, meaning "fatherland"), also referred to as geographic speciation, vicariant speciation, or its earlier name, the dumbbell model, is a mode of speciation that occurs when biological populations of the same species become isolated from each other to an extent that prevents or interferes with genetic interchange.

Gene pool

The gene pool is the set of all genes, or genetic information, in any population, usually of a particular species.

Genetic drift

Genetic drift (also known as allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect) is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms.

Homo sapiens

Homo sapiens is the systematic name used in taxonomy (also known as binomial nomenclature) for the only extant human species.

Hybrid (biology)

In biology, a hybrid, or crossbreed, is the result of combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction.

Morphology (biology)

Morphology is a branch of biology dealing with the study of the form and structure of organisms and their specific structural features.

Speciation

Speciation is the evolutionary process by which populations evolve to become distinct species.

Gene flow and Species Comparison

Gene flow has 57 relations, while Species has 193. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 2.80% = 7 / (57 + 193).
