Table 5.
Chi-square contingency test for the effect of the number of probes used in the probe-set on the likelihood of mapping the corresponding gene by SFP detection (χ2d.f. = 1 = 27.4, P < 0.00001)
| # probes | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| # Genes | 5 | 10 | |
| Not mapped | 15787 | 1205 | 16992 |
| Mapped | 762 (4.6%) | 103 (7.9%) | 865* |
| 16549 | 1308 | ||
*The total number of mapped SFPs used in the test (865) is lower than the total of SFP mapped (884) because numbers of probes different from 5 or 10 were used for some genes and these were removed from this analysis.
