Difference between Founder effect and Population bottleneck

Founder effect vs. Population bottleneck

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. A population bottleneck or genetic bottleneck is a sharp reduction in the size of a population due to environmental events (such as earthquakes, floods, fires, disease, or droughts) or human activities (such as genocide).

Similarities between Founder effect and Population bottleneck

Founder effect and Population bottleneck have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Allele, Fixation (population genetics), Genetic drift, Inbreeding, Inbreeding depression, Mutation, Popular sire effect, Small population size, Speciation, Toba catastrophe theory.

Allele

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.

Fixation (population genetics)

In population genetics, fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exists at least two variants of a particular gene (allele) in a given population to a situation where only one of the alleles remains.

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.

Inbreeding depression

Inbreeding depression is the reduced biological fitness in a given population as a result of inbreeding, or breeding of related individuals.

Mutation

In biology, a mutation is the permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA or other genetic elements.

Popular sire effect

The popular sire effect (or popular stud/sire syndrome) occurs when an animal with desirable attributes is bred repeatedly.

Toba catastrophe theory

The Toba supereruption was a supervolcanic eruption that occurred about 75,000 years ago at the site of present-day Lake Toba in Sumatra, Indonesia.
