If a population has an allele frequency of 1.0, it means that all individuals in the population have the same allele for that gene, and there is no genetic variation of that allele. This lack of variation can limit the ability of a population to respond to changing environmental conditions or evolutionary pressures. Therefore, genetic variation of that allele is low.
