Fixation

Fixation is the loss of all but one allele at a particular locus in a population. This may be due to genetic drift (including founder effect and bottleneck) or to selection. The result is a loss of genetic variation in the population. Fixation index (Fst) measures the differentiation of a population...

Fixation index (Fst) measures the differentiation of a population due to substructure. The Aleut population of Bering Island, Russia is fixed for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup D.
