B:In small gene pools random fluctuation significantly alters genetic variation. C:In large gene pools random fluctuation is insignificant. D:In large gene pools random fluctuation significantly alters genetic variation. Title: How does genetic drift influence the frequency of alleles within a gene pool? Post by: ocampon on Sep 15, 2012 B.. This represents random changes in small gene pools due to sampling errors in propagation of alleles. The bottleneck effect and founder effect are prime examples of genetic drift. In either case the number of individuals in a population is drastically reduced distorting the original allelic frequencies.
