English term or phrase: gene mapping
Definition from Oak Ridge National Laboratory:
Determination of the relative positions of genes on a DNA molecule (chromosome or plasmid) and of the distance, in linkage units or physical units, between them.

Example sentence(s):
  • Over the last decade, there has been marked progress in gene mapping in man and some animals. Advances in gene mapping have also touched fur-bearing animals: the genetic map of mink consists of 74 genes marking all chromosomes, except the Y, and the fox map contains 35 genes marking 15 of 16 autosomes and the X chromosome. AgBiotechNet
  • Pioneering gene mapping studies into the genomes of fishes will only serve as the starting point for more detailed studies into the function of these genomes. Future research directed at understanding the mechanisms of gene actions and interactions will benefit all areas of biology, including ecology, ethology, evolution, and physiology. CAT.INIST
  • Somatic cell hybrid (SCH) panels and radiation hybrid (RH) panels are powerful resources for comparative gene mapping because gene assignments are made without the detection of genetic polymorphism as needed for linkage mapping. Genome Research

遺伝子地図作製


Definition from own experience or research:
QTLに関する情報を得るには、すでに知られている標識遺伝子(マーカー)とQTLの連鎖およびQTLの作用力を調べる方法(連鎖解析)が取られる。具体的には遺伝子型が異なる個体からなる集団について調査を行い、標識遺伝子の遺伝子型と形質の表現型の関連を統計学的に解析する。この連鎖分析によってQTLの情報を得る過程を、既存の遺伝子地図にQTL情報を加えることから、マッピング（mapping）とも言う。

遺伝子地図


Definition from Wikipedia:
遺伝子地図（いでんしちず）とは染色体上の遺伝子の位置を示した地図のこと。

Example sentence(s):
  • 遺伝子地図（いでんしちず）とは染色体上の遺伝子の位置を示した地図のこと。 金銭的な問題や効率面からゲノムプロジェクトの前段階として各種の地図が作られる他、実際の研究では塩基配列全ての情報よりも、こういった簡略化された地図が有用な場合も多い。そういった地図のひとつ。 - Wikipedia  

Explanation:
I found this term in Wikipedia, and it sounds right, although I would translate it to 遺伝子マップ.
Translating it to all kanji looks profesional, but it is too proper for my taste.

So my answer to this question is 遺伝子地図 or 遺伝子マップ

Example sentence(s):
  • 連鎖地図作成時のデータ入力や修正、lod score 解析や連鎖地図作成が可能なクライアンソフト gＲanch を開発した。また、gＲanchは家畜ゲノムデータベースを検索して、種間のマッピングホモロジーを表示、検索する機能を持っている - 農林水産研究情報  

Explanation:
Yasutomo Kanazawaさんのお答えとほぼおなじなのですが、「作製」という日本語は物（例えば器具や製品など）のを作るときに使われ、「作成」は文書や計画を作るときに使われるため、「作成」の方が適していると思います。
