Parameters

You can change the parameters directly in the tsv files. Watch out, it is a tabular separated values file, so you do not want mess spaces and tabs. In the case you do not understand what a parameter does, you do not want to touch it.

Species tree evolution (T)

STOPPING_RULE

  • 0: Time stops arriving at TOTAL_TIME
  • 1: Tree evolves until a total of species = N_LINEAGES (alive) have been generated

TOTAL_TIME

To use with the stopping rule 0

N_LINEAGES

To use in combination with the stopping rule 1. Otherwise is ignored

SPECIATION, EXTINCTION

Rates of evolution

Genome evolution (G)

DUPLICATION, TRANSFER, LOSS, INVERSION, TRANSLOCATION, ORIGINATION

The value for each type of event.

DUPLICATION_EXTENSION, TRANSFER_EXTENSION, LOSS_EXTENSION, INVERSION_EXTENSION, TRANSLOCATION_EXTENSION

The value of the p parameter of a geometric distribution that determines the extension of the genome (measured in number of genes) affected for event

REPLACEMENT_TRANSFER

A number between 0 and 1 controling the probability of replacement transfers (they only happen if there is a homologous position in the recipient genome)

STEM_FAMILIES

Number of gene families present in the ancestral genome at the root

MIN_GENOME_SIZE

The minimal size for a given genome. Smaller genomes will not be affected by losses events

Sequence evolution (S)
