Difference between Founder effect and Genetic distance

Founder effect vs. Genetic distance

In population genetics, the founder effect is the loss of genetic variation that occurs when a new population is established by a very small number of individuals from a larger population. Genetic distance is a measure of the genetic divergence between species or between populations within a species, whether the distance measures time from common ancestor or degree of differentiation.

Similarities between Founder effect and Genetic distance

Founder effect and Genetic distance have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Biodiversity, Genetic drift, Genetics, Mutation.

Allele

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.

Genetic drift

Genetic drift (also known as allelic drift or the Sewall Wright effect) is the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant (allele) in a population due to random sampling of organisms.
