Default Colonizing too rapidly ...

Is that possible? By that I mean - is it possible to deplete your 'parent' planet's population to a level so as to adversely affect production and/or research rates if you send out a 'sh-tload' of colony ships too quickly?

Has anyone done a test to determine the percentage population ratio to change in the rate of production/research?

The same question also pertains to transporting pop to newly established colonies. It seems to me that it would be possible to shoot one's self in the foot here.
