hindex

This program calculates a hybrid index for individuals of unknown ancestry. The index is based on information from molecular markers and uses maximum-likelihood to estimate the proportion of alleles that were inherited from one of two hybridizing parental species.

introgress

This software is in development and the plan is for initial release in 2008. It will be an R-package that implements various methods for the analysis of gene introgression in hybrid zones, such as the methods that were used in Lexer et al. (2006), as well as methods for admixture mapping.
