This phenomenon occurs twice as quickly in the Moran model as in the Wright-Fisher model. A high frequency of Ellis-van Creveld syndrome among the Amish is caused by a special case of this phenomenon. Most common for neutral genes, it violates one of the assumptions of the Hardy-Weinberg principle. When a small group breaks off from a population, this phenomenon results in the founder effect. Its effect is magnified following a population bottleneck, and unlike natural selection, it is random. For 10 points, name this phenomenon, a change in allele frequency due to random sampling.
