We present the R package SimRVSequences to simulate sequence data for pedigrees. SimRVSequences allows for simulations of large numbers of single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and scales well with increasing numbers of pedigrees. Users provide a sample of pedigrees and SNV data from a sample of unrelated individuals.
