The Virtual Genetics Lab II: Improvements to a Freely Available Software Simulation of Genetics
White, Brian T.
American Biology Teacher, v74 n5 p336-337 May 2012
The Virtual Genetics Lab II (VGLII) is an improved version of the highly successful genetics simulation software, the Virtual Genetics Lab (VGL). The software allows students to use the techniques of genetic analysis to design crosses and interpret data to solve realistic genetics problems involving a hypothetical diploid insect. This is a brief outline of the program and its new features; details are available at http://intro.bio.umb.edu/vgl/.
