From: py_ped_sim: a flexible forward pedigree and genetic simulator for complex family pedigree analysis
Visual abstract illustrating the primary features of the py_ped_sim software. Our software comes with the ability to (Pedigree Simulations, 1) simulate pedigrees with non-uniform sibship sizes, (Misattributed Paternity, 2) simulate events of MAP onto existing pedigree structures, (Family Broadening, 3) simulate family broadening, extending the horizontal breadth of the family, (Genome Simulations, 4) simulate genomes onto pedigrees using SLiM, (Relationship Identifier, 5) identify all genetic relationships within the family pedigree
