GENOMEPOP 2.7.7.1 – Evolve Populations of Genomes under complex Evolution Models and Demography

GENOMEPOP 2.7.7.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Genomepop is flexible software that allows the forward simulation of DNA sequences in a metapopulation context under a variety of conditions. Users can input their own sequences or tell the program to generate them. Retro and recurrent mutation can be allowed or neglected. A number of populations with any migration model can be defined. Each population consists of a number N of sequences or genomes.

CHROnicle 201503 – Reconstruction of the complete Evolutionary History of Genomes

CHROnicle 201503

:: DESCRIPTION

CHROnicle is a package dedicated to the reconstruction of the complete evolutionary history of genomes. It is based on the analysis of the marks accumulated over evolutionary time left in the genomes by chromosomal rearrangements. CHROnicle is composed of four different programs: SynChro, PhyChro, ReChro and AnChro.
