GppFst: genomic posterior predictive simulations of FST and dXY for identifying outlier loci from population genomic data

We introduce GppFst, an open source R package that generates posterior predictive distributions of FST and dx under a neutral coalescent model to identify putative targets of selection from genomic data. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION GppFst is available at (https://github.com/radamsRHA/GppFst).
