Probabilistic significance of the enrichment of the k = 75 organisms, with largest relative nucleotide frequency increase or decrease in each of the significant eigenpositions, in the respective taxonomic groups. The P-value of each enrichment is calculated as described [35], assuming hypergeometric probability distribution of the J annotations among the K = 339 organisms, and of the subset of Inline graphic annotations among the subset of k = 75 organisms.
