fastsimcoal2 2.6.0.2 – Continuous-time Coalescent Simulator of Genomic Diversity

fastsimcoal2 2.6.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

fastsimcoal is  a new coalescent-based simulation program, which is able to quickly simulate a variety of genetic markers scattered over very long genomic regions with arbitrary recombination patterns under complex evolutionary scenarios.
