Tendency of a gene to vary randomly without the influence of natural selection. Random fluctuations in the frequencies of certain alleles occurring in small populations. The tendency for variations to occur in the genetic composition of small isolated inbreeding populations by chance. Such populations become genetically rather different from the original population from which they…
