Description Details Author(s) References See Also

Functions and code to simulate metapopulation genetics. MetaPopGen allows for age-structure and multiple demes, monoecious and dioecious (separate sexes) life-cycles, dispersal of adults and propagules. Survival probabilities and fecundities can be genotype-dependent, so as to model selection. Functions are available to simulate single-locus and multi-locus systems.

The best way to get started with MetaPopGen is to follow the tutorials: https://github.com/MarcoAndrello/MetaPopGen-2.0/blob/master/Tutorial1.pdf https://github.com/MarcoAndrello/MetaPopGen-2.0/blob/master/Tutorial2.pdf https://github.com/MarcoAndrello/MetaPopGen-2.0/blob/master/Tutorial3.pdf

The main functions for simulating one-locus metapopulation genetics are sim.metapopgen.monoecious and sim.metapopgen.dioecious.
There are several example datasets, such as FourPopMonoecious.

For multilocus simulations, see functions sim.metapopgen.monoecious.multilocus and sim.metapopgen.dioecious.multilocus
