simuG: a general-purpose genome simulator Long Description (required)
Simulated genomes with pre-defined or random genomic variants can be very useful for benchmarking genomic and bioinformatics analyses. Here we introduce simuG as a light-weighted tool for simulating the full spectrum of genomic variants (SNPs, INDELs, CNVs, inversions, and translocations). In addition, simuG enables a rich array of fine-tuned controls, such as simulating SNPs in different coding partitions (e.g. coding sites, noncoding sites, 4-fold degenerate sites, or 2-fold degenerate sites); simulating CNVs with different formation mechanisms (e.g. segmental deletions, dispersed duplications, and tandem duplications); and simulating inversions and translocations with specific types of breakpoints. The simplicity and versatility of simuG make it a unique general purpose genome simulator for a wide-range of simulation-based applications. https://github.com/yjx1217/simuG
Step 1: Use the attribute tree to add new attributes or remove pre-selected attributes to describe the simulator.

Can't Find the Attribute You Are Looking For? If you would like to propose an attribute that you cannot find in the tree above, or if you would like to add a clarification to one or more attributes for this simulator (e.g. a specific file format for attribute /Output/File Format/Other), please list them in the Additional Comment box of the Submit tab .
