    abstract = {Simulation of genetic variants data is frequently
      required for the evaluation of statistical methods in the fields
      of human and animal genetics. Although a number of high-quality
      genetic simulators have been developed, many of them require
      advanced knowledge in population genetics or in computation to be
      used effectively. In addition, generating simulated data in the
      context of family-based studies demands sophisticated methods and
      advanced computer programming.},
