CoreSimul: a forward-in-time simulator of genome evolution for prokaryotes modeling homologous recombination

Abstract Background Prokaryotes are asexual, but these organisms frequently engage in homologous recombination, a process that differs from meiotic recombination in sexual organisms. Most tools developed to simulate genome evolution either assume sexual reproduction or the complete absence of DNA fl...
