The Amish population in the United States is an example of the founder effect. When a small group of individuals established the Amish community in the 18th century, they brought with them a limited genetic diversity. This has resulted in a higher frequency of certain genetic disorders within the Amish population due to the founder effect.
Amish are called Amish because the founder of it was Jacob Ammann
The finches of the Galápagos Islands are an example of the founder effect, where a small group of finches established a new population on an isolated island. Over time, genetic variations that were present in this small group became more prevalent in the subsequent generations of finches on the island.

Founder's effect is a type of genetic drift, a chance event that can disrupt the gene pool of a population. In this case, the gene pool is limited due to the similarity of genes shared within the group. These similarities are the result of a limited number of "founders" or individuals who started the population. A good example of founder's effect is the Amish population. A few individuals started the group and limited immigration and reproduction, which would have allowed for new combinations of genes to be added to the gene pool. Because of this lack of variation, the members of the population share many traits, thus resulting in decreased diversity.
You can put any letter,except a, in front of the A and it will rhyme with Amish. An example would be be Bamish.

This is known as the founder effect, where a small subgroup establishes a new population with a different allele frequency compared to the original population.
Jakob Amman. His religious followers became known as Amish. It started as a reform group within the Mennonite movement -- an attempt to restore some of the early practices of the Mennonites.
