December 2017: A new release of the LFMM program is available from github in the R package lfmm. The new implementation of LFMM is based on least squares estimates. The "lfmm" functions are faster for larger data sets and they are sometimes more accurate than the Bayesian version.
October 2017: Major update of the R package LEA including imputation functions. The Bayesian program LFMM 1.5 is still available in LEA.
