AdmixSim 2.0 – Forward-time Simulator of Population Genetic data

AdmixSim 2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

AdmixSim is an individual-based forward-time simulation tool that can flexibly and efficiently simulate population genomics data under complex evolutionary scenarios. It is based on the extended Wright-Fisher model, and it implements many common evolutionary parameters to involve gene flow, natural selection, recombination, and mutation.
