We developed Gametes Simulator, a routine to simulate gametes from allelic frequencies of unlinked loci, which enables the analysis of population structure through Bayesian analysis. Based on the allelic frequencies in the populations, the software simulates the alleles per population in the right proportions and assigns one allele per marker to each gamete following Mendel s laws that govern gametogenesis. aFITOMEJORAMIENTO aALLELIC FREQUENCIES aBULK SAMPLING aUNLINKED LOCI1 aFERNANDEZ, P.1 aCONDON, F.1 aGALVÁN, G.A. tCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnologygv. 20, n.1 e26482019, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/198470332020v20n1s9
