A flock of 40 finches chosen randomly from a large, mixed population of finches are introduced into a new location, where they found a large population over 100 generations as follows: In the first 10 generations, the population size remained 40. In the 11 th generation, the population size grew to N=10,000 and was stable at this value for the next 90 generations (i.e. from the 11 th to the 100 th generations). What fraction of the Heterozygosity at an arbitrary neutral locus do you expect to be lost in passing through the initial population bottleneck (when there were only 40 finches)?
