Why genetic diversity decrease in founder effect?
Founder's effect is a type of genetic drift, a chance event that can disrupt the gene pool of a population. In this case, the gene pool is limited due to the similarity of genes shared within the group. These similarities are the result of a limited number of "founders" or individuals who started the population. A good example of founder's effect is the Amish population. A few individuals started the group and limited immigration and reproduction, which would have allowed for new combinations of genes to be added to the gene pool. Because of this lack of variation, the members of the population share many traits, thus resulting in decreased diversity.
