{{one source |date=March 2024}} In population genetics, '''extinction probability''' is the chance of an inherited trait becoming extinct as a function of time ''t''.<ref name =":1">{{cite journal |last1=Kilman |first1=Richard |title=Genetic Drift and Effective Population Size |journal=Nature Education |date=2008 |volume=1 |issue=3 |page=3 |url=https://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/genetic-drift-and-effective-population-size-772523/ |access-date=20 February 2024}}</ref> If ''t'' = ∞ this may be the complement of the chance of becoming a universal trait. This opposing process is also known as proceeding to fixation.
