Reporting Genetic Map Results

When publishing genetic maps visualized in VIEWmap:

Include: 1. VIEWpoly citation for visualization 2. MAPpoly, polymapR, or OneMap citation for map construction 3. Population type and size 4. Ploidy level 5. Number of markers and linkage groups 6. Total map length 7. Average marker spacing

Map Quality Metrics: - Segregation distortion patterns - Missing data percentage - Largest gaps between markers - Heat map of recombination fractions (if available)
