Overview of the Genetic Linkage Map Building Process. a We utilized the following phylogenetic tree. While provided with 7190 scaffolds with homologous genes on them, scaffolding method identified 525 links and assembled scaffolds respectively. These scaffolds were then mapped into male and female linkage maps provided by the Kai et al. study. b The scaffolds mapped into male and female linkage groups were then sorted into single group. As illustrated in the graph, scaffolds marked with same colors provide the evidences for the general order of them on the chromosome. The order can then be sorted through topological sort algorithm
