Conservation genetics

moving individuals or seeds between populations of a species to bring in genes suited to a changing climate.

In conservation genetics, assisted gene flow refers to moving individuals or seeds between populations of a species to bring in genes suited to a changing climate. This meaning comes from Aitken (2013) in Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics.[1]
