Abstract
forqs is a forward-in-time simulation of recombination, quantitative traits, and selection. It was designed to investigate haplotype patterns resulting from scenarios where substantial evolutionary change has taken place in a small number of generations due to recombination and/or selection on polygenic quantitative traits. forqs is implemented as a command- line C++ program. Source code and binary executables for Linux, OSX, and Windows are freely available under a permissive BSD license.
