# MAPpoly 
MAPpoly (v. 0.4.1) is an R package to construct genetic maps in diploids and autopolyploids with even ploidy levels. In its current version, MAPpoly can handle ploidy levels up to 8 when using hidden Markov models (HMM) and up to 12 when using the two-point simplification. When dealing with large numbers of markers (> 10,000), we strongly recommend using high-performance computing (HPC).
In its current version, MAPpoly can handle the following types of datasets:
1. CSV files
2. MAPpoly files
- Dosage based
- Probability based
3. [fitPoly](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=fitPoly) files
4. VCF files
MAPpoly also is capable of importing objects generated by the following R packages
1. [updog](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=updog)
2. [polyRAD](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=polyRAD)
3. [polymapR](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=polymapR)
- Datasets
- Maps
The mapping strategy uses pairwise recombination fraction estimation as the first source of information to position allelic variants in specific homologs sequentially. The algorithm relies on the multilocus likelihood obtained through a hidden Markov model (HMM) for situations where pairwise analysis has limited power. The derivation of the HMM used in MAPpoly can be found in [Mollinari and Garcia, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31405891/). The computation of the offspring's genotypes probabilities and haplotype reconstruction, as well as the preferential pairing profiles, is presented in [Mollinari et al., 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31732504/).
# Installation
## From CRAN (stable version)
To install MAPpoly from the The Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) use
```R
install.packages("mappoly")
```
## From GitHub (development version)
You can install the development version from Git Hub. Within R, you need to install `pak`:
```R
install.packages("pak")
```
If you are using Windows, please install the the latest recommended version of [Rtools](https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/).
To install MAPpoly from Git Hub use
```R
pak::pak("mmollina/mappoly")
```
For further QTL analysis, we recommend our [QTLpoly](https://cran.r-project.org/package=qtlpoly) package. QTLpoly performs random-effect multiple interval mapping (REMIM) in full-sib families of autopolyploid species based on restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation and score statistics, as described in [Pereira et al. 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32371382/).
We recently released [VIEWpoly](https://cran.r-project.org/package=viewpoly). VIEWpoly provides a graphical user interface to integrate, visualize and explore results from linkage and quantitative trait loci analysis, together with genomic information for autopolyploid (and diploid) species. The app is meant for interactive use and allows users to optionally upload different sources of information, including gene annotation and alignment files, enabling the exploitation and search for candidate genes in a genome browser. VIEWpoly supports inputs other than MAPpoly's, including polymapR, diaQTL, QTLpoly, and polyqtlR.
