Distribution for dominance coefficients

[Martin Johnsson]

Hello SLiM community,

It's easy to set up a mutation type that has the selection coefficient for new mutations drawn from a gamma distribution. I'd also like to be able to have new mutations that have their dominance coefficients drawn from a (beta) distribution. Does anyone know how to do this? I couldn't find a way, but perhaps my search skills and imagination are limited. :)

Best wishes, 

Martin

Hi Martin!

Section 10.6 of the manual has an example of how to do this in present-day SLiM.  I would also note that in the next version of SLiM it is planned that this will become much easier to do, and much more efficient.  :->  It is a bit of a rough edge in the design of SLiM right now.

Cheers,
-B.
