遗传健康保护是物种保护的一个重要方面。保护等位基因多样性尤为重要，因为它提供了适应能力，从而使种群能够长期生存。对于具有复杂人口统计学和生活史特征的真实人群，等位基因保留很难预测超过一代，因此我们开发了一个计算机模型来模拟小群体中的等位基因保留。等位基因确定性是一个基于个体的模型，可用于评估在具有重叠世代的动物小种群中保护等位基因多样性的管理方案。AlleleRetain弥补了现有类似软件的局限性，其源代码可供进一步修改。AlleleRetain及其配套资料可从https://sites.google.com/site/alleleretain/或CRAN （http://cran.r-project.org）下载。
Preserving genetic health is an important aspect of species conservation. Allelic diversity is particularly important to conserve, as it provides capacity for adaptation and thus enables long‐term population viability. Allele retention is difficult to predict beyond one generation for real populations with complex demography and life‐history traits, so we developed a computer model to simulate allele retention in small populations. AlleleRetain is an individual‐based model implemented in r and can be applied to assess management options for conserving allelic diversity in small populations of animals with overlapping generations. AlleleRetain remedies the limitations of similar existing software, and its source code is freely available for further modification. AlleleRetain and its supporting materials can be downloaded from https://sites.google.com/site/alleleretain/ or CRAN (http://cran.r-project.org).
