Description: Simply and efficiently simulates (i) variants from
reference genomes and (ii) reads from both Illumina
and Pacific Biosciences (PacBio)
platforms. It can either read reference
genomes from FASTA files or simulate new ones. Genomic variants
can be simulated using summary statistics, phylogenies, Variant
Call Format (VCF) files, and coalescent simulations—the latter
of which can include selection, recombination, and demographic
fluctuations. 'jackalope' can simulate single, paired-end, or
mate-pair Illumina reads, as well as PacBio reads. These
simulations include sequencing errors, mapping qualities,
multiplexing, and optical/polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
duplicates. Simulating Illumina sequencing is based on ART by
Huang et al. (2012) . PacBio
sequencing simulation is based on SimLoRD by Stöcker et al.
(2016) . All outputs can be
written to standard file formats.
