FLUCTUATE fits the model which has a single population which has been growing (or shrinking) according to an exponential growth law. It estimates 4Nu and g, where N is the effective population size, u is the neutral mutation rate per site, and g is the growth rate of the population. If you have a PowerMac, you will want to fetch the PowerMac binary, or if you have an Intel processor with Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP you want the exe file.
Version 1.4, updated September 6, 2002.
Please note: we are no longer supporting FLUCTUATE as its functions can be done just as well by LAMARC and it's easier for us to support just one program.
