Abstract excerpt
Experimental bottleneck lines were generated from a single outbred population of the housefly using one, four, or 16 pairs of flies. These lines were followed through one, three, or five successive founder-flush cycles. After each flush 30 individuals from each line were assayed for electrophoretic variation at four initially polymorphic loci. Electrophoretic variation largely followed neutral expectation, the...
