Abstract Genetic linkage maps are valuable resources for investigating chromosomal structure, quantifying karyotype, estimating recombination rates, and improving preexisting genome assemblies. Comparative mapping, in turn, broadens our understanding of the phylogenetic history these genomic features. Through an assessment synteny (the conservation gene order on homologous chromosomes different species) variation rate, we can begin to understand how features change during evolution distinct species. Here, construct high-density genetic 3 Vespidae wasp species from Vespula genus: consobrina, pensylvanica, vidua investigate shared architecture between yellowjacket We show that exhibit high levels collinearity, often chromosome-length blocks synteny, with some evidence small interchromosomal rearrangements. also identify 2 “inversions” all likely artifacts assembly process. In addition, map genome-wide rates reveal landscape be highly variable intrachromosomal, interchromosomal, interspecific scales.
