I personally have not used these programs but my SO is using a program
called "HypoLife" at the University of Maryland in her Cell Biology course.
I don't know if this product can be purchase or if it is a "in-house" program
but maybe this information could be helpful.
Quote from the SO, "HypoLife was a system where you could look at the
evolution of species. And using scientific method analyze the rules
governing evolution"
