Allograft is the transplant of an organ or tissue from one individual to another one. The individuals should be of the same species with a different genotype (if the two induvidual's genotypes are the same, such as an identical twin, that is called as an isograft).
Allografts account for many human transplants, including those from cadaveric, living related, and living unrelated donors. Called also an allogeneic graft or a homograft.
