Genetic Drift Simulation - NetLogo
23 Jun 2016 | | Contributor(s):: Tony Weisstein
This model simulates genetic drift in a population. The user can control the population size, whether the population is subdivided into separate local populations, and the amount of gene flow (if any) between local populations. Phenotype frequency in each subpopulation is plotted as a...

Population Genetics: When Darwin Met Mendel - Crash Course Biology
03 Oct 2015 | | Contributor(s):: CrashCourse
This Youtube video talks about population genetics, which helps to explain the evolution of populations over time by combing the principles of Mendel and Darwin, and by means of the Hardy-Weinberg equation, all in an upbeat, modern and somewhat zany manner.

Founder Effects, Inbreeding, and Loss of Genetic Diversity in Four Avian Reintroduction Programs
22 Mar 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Ian Jamieson
The number of individuals translocated and released as part of a reintroduction is often small, as is the final established population, because the reintroduction site is typically small. Small founder and small resulting populations can result in population bottlenecks, which are associated with...

POPULUS Genetic Drift Computer Simulation
30 Jan 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Joanna Vondrasek, Janis Antonovics, Doug Taylor
A stand-alone lab exercise developed for the Evolution course at the University of Virginia. Explores the effects of population size and initial allele frequency on the loss/fixation of alleles.
