LEA website LEA is a program for estimating admixture proportions using the method described in Chikhi et al. (2001). A user-friendly interface has been developed by Olivier Langella (CNRS, Gif), which can be downloaded from the LEA website maintained by Olivier.

2mod.zip A program to distinguish non-equilibrium, fragmented populations from those at migration-drift equilibrium (Ciofi et al, 1999).

tm3.1.zip A program to estimate Ne by the temporal method (Berthier, Beaumont et al., Genetics, 2002).

tmvp.zip A program similar to tm3.1, but which can use data sampled at many different times. It will estimate population size at the time of the first and last sample, assuming this changes exponentially in the interval. This is a distribution with only a draft Readme. The manuscript describing the approach is included in this distribution or can be obtained from here).

dlik1.2.zip A program to estimate Ne of recently diverged populations (O'Ryan et al., 1998).

msvar0.4.1b.zip A program to detect past population growth or decline using autosomal microsatellite frequencies (Beaumont, Genetics, 1999)

fdist2.zip A program to detect loci that might be under selection in samples from structured populations (Beaumont and Nichols, 1996, Flint et al, 1999). This has been modified since the original fdist program. See the readme for details.
