Bottlenecks and Founder Effects. Genetic drift can cause big losses of genetic variation for small populations. Population bottlenecks occur when a populations size is reduced for at least one generation.ottlenecks and Founder Effects.

The founder effect a genetic bottleneck are similar in their effect  on the genetic diversity of a local population in both situations.  They result in the development of a â¦population from a small number  individuals and is likely to have reduced genetic diversity.
