Table 2.

Number of genes – comparisons with hybrid genome – upstream versus downstream

Genome Number of TSSs upstream Number of TSSs downstream Total Proportion
i ii iii iv = ii + iii v = iii/iv

A real 5738 10033 15771 63.6%
B hybrid 3791 6072 9863 61.6%
C A – B 1947 3961 5908 67.0% (X)

Columns ii and iii refer to the number of TSSs within 100 kb of the A+/T+ boundary, upstream or downstream respectively. The figure of 67.0% (X) is significantly different from 50.0% using a binomial distribution approximated by the normal distribution, p < 10-50, n = 5908, z = 26, one tailed test.
