symsim 0.1 – Sympatric Speciation Simulation for Recombining Microbial Populations

symsim 0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Symsim (sympatric speciation simulation) is a discrete generations model implemented in MatLab, with varying population size, designed to investigate the colonization of a new ecological niche. Each generation consists of resource competition, population growth and recombination in a sympatric pool. Symsim models a microbial population growing in an environment composed of two distinct niches, one ancestral (niche 0) and one derived (niche 1).
