Title SelSim
Short Description population genetic simulation (Not SelSim from Spencer & Coop 2004, which is currently unavailable)
Long Description With selsim, an evolving population of sequences is simulated according to a haploid Wright-Fisher model with discrete generations. This uses a Jukes-Cantor mutation model with a specified mutation rate. In each subsequent generation, the population is reconstituted by sampling sequences with replacement proportional to their frequency multiplied by their fitness. Mutations can be advantageous or deleterious and affect fitness in a multiplicative fashion (additive on a log-scale). Sequences are sampled at random time points after a period of burn-in.
