Founder Effect Lab at Cindy Chavez blog

Founder Effect Lab. Three incompletely dominant alleles exist in the simulated population (red, yellow, blue) with heterozygous individuals appearing as the blending of the two alleles. Most founding events entail a reduction in population size, which in turn leads to genetic drift effects that can deplete alleles. This model illustrates random genetic drift, bottleneck effects, and founder effects. A founder effect occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population. This lab will demonstrate how genetic drift can be a strong evolutionary force in certain situations. We report an experimental study of founder effects in a natural system of a caribbean lizard, demonstrating that morphological divergence caused by the founder effect persists even as populations adapt to their new environments. This reduced genetic diversity that results when a population is descended from a small number of colonizing ancestors is known as the “founder. We will see that a smaller population size can show a. The term founder effect refers to the observation that when a small group of individuals breaks off from a larger population and establishes a new. This small population size means that the colony may.
