Difference between Founder effect and Retinitis pigmentosa

Founder effect vs. Retinitis pigmentosa

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. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a genetic disorder of the eyes that causes loss of vision.

Similarities between Founder effect and Retinitis pigmentosa

Founder effect and Retinitis pigmentosa have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Dominance (genetics), Genetics, Mutation, Phenotype.

Dominance (genetics)
