The appearance of a different DNA sequence may decrease nucleotide diversity.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Dec 1999

Shimatani K

Abstract excerpt

Nucleotide diversity may be decreased when a different DNA sequence type appears in a population. This undesirable property in a genetic diversity index is demonstrated by mathematical examples. The possibility of this phenomenon in natural populations is briefly discussed.
