Simulation based on user-defined reference genome or tree #18

Hi, I really like your tool and love that is is easy to use. When reading the Microbial Genomics publication, I get the sense that BacGWASim can simulate genome using user-provided annotations. However, this option is not availble in the version that I'm using (2.1.1). Was this possible in previous versions ? Do you plan to add this option in the future? Thanks!

I got the exact same idea when reading the paper and the same issue when trying to implement BacGWASim. Did you solve this?

Hi @luciagrami, I'm not aware that this issue has been adressed. I'm not sure this tool is actively mantained (last commit 3 years ago). I found another GWAS simulation tool (https://github.com/francesccoll/powerbacgwas) that looks more sophisticated but unfortunately I was not able to install it
