From nature to the laboratory: the impact of founder effects on adaptation.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Dec 2012

Abstract excerpt

Most founding events entail a reduction in population size, which in turn leads to genetic drift effects that can deplete alleles. Besides reducing neutral genetic variability, founder effects can in principle shift additive genetic variance for phenotypes that underlie fitness. This could then lead to different rates of adaptation among populations that have undergone a population size bottleneck as well as an...
