GSR: Simulator - AlphaSim

Basic Package Attributes
Attribute	Value
Title	AlphaSim
Short Description	Breeding-program simulator for plant and animal breeding; original package is superseded by AlphaSimR.
Long Description	AlphaSim simulates plant and animal breeding programs using genome-level data and user-defined breeding scenarios. The actively maintained successor, AlphaSimR, provides R scripting for stochastic breeding-program simulations to DNA-sequence resolution, including selection, crossing, and genomic-selection study designs.
Keywords	breeding program simulation; plant breeding; animal breeding; genomic selection; quantitative genetics; AlphaSimR; R; CRAN
