This code: (1) Generates data for the weak-selection mathematical model. This is contained in the "Generate_data_for_island_model_weak_selection" script. (2) Generates data for the agent-based simulation model, which accounts for stronger selection and finite populations. This is contained in the "Generate_data_for_agent_based_simulation" script. (3) Generates data for the version of the agent-based simulation model where there is no tag mutation, in which balancing selection is examined via tag fixation times. This is contained in the "Generate_data_for_balancing_selection_finite_pop" script.

This code contains scripts for generating data (specifically, these scripts numerically implement our mathematical model). There are three data generating scripts: "Script_for_generating_parameter_sweep_data.m", "Script_for_generating_single_trial_data.m", "Script_for_generating_initial_genotype_frequencies.m". Running the "Script_for_generating_parameter_sweep_data.m" script will generate long-term (equilibrium) results for a range of d (parasite virulence) and lag (parasite evolutionary lag) values, and save these results in matrices. Running the "Script_for_generating_single_trial_data.m" script will generate over-time (dynamical) results for a specific set of parameter values. Both of these scripts call the "Script_for_generating_initial_genotype_frequencies.m" in order to generate the initial genotype frequencies that start off each run.

These data are data on the outcomes of contests between groups of banded mongooses in Mweya Peninsula, Uganda. Data were collected between 2000 and 2019. The data include information on group membership (number and sex of individuals, age, etc…) as well as physiological data (weight), genetic data (pedigree), and behavioural data (contest outcomes, eviction). Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/be44b9c1-7355-4894-8f0d-b57b219b249b
