Genetic drift refers to the random change in the frequency of a particular allele within a population. This is a nonselective process that occurs after a large population is reduced to a small population. Examples: bottleneck, founder effects.
La deriva genetica si riferisce al cambiamento casuale nella frequenza di un particolare allele all'interno di una popolazione. Questo è un processo non selettivo che si verifica dopo che una grande popolazione è stata ridotta a una popolazione piccola. Esempi: effetto collo di bottiglia, effetto del fondatore.
