mappoly: Genetic Linkage Maps in Autopolyploids

Constructs genetic linkage maps in autopolyploid full-sib populations. Uses pairwise recombination fraction estimation as the first source of information to sequentially position allelic variants in specific homologous chromosomes. For situations where pairwise analysis has limited power, the algorithm relies on the multilocus likelihood obtained through a hidden Markov model (HMM). Methods are described in Mollinari and Garcia (2019) <doi:10.1534/g3.119.400378> and Mollinari et al. (2020) <doi:10.1534/g3.119.400620>.
