genetic drift
Change in the pool of gene s of a small population that takes place strictly by chance. Genetic drift can result in genetic traits being lost from a population or becoming widespread in a population without respect to the survival or reproductive value of the gene pairs (alleles) involved. A random ... January 22, 2007; Britannica Concise Encyclopedia
