Categories of SNP-associated genes were analyzed using the hypergeometric distribution against the background of all genes.
Gene ontology (GO) functional category.
Number of genes in the M13220 reference genome belonging to this category (2,108 total genes in the genome).
Number of SNP-associated genes belonging to this category (45 total SNP-associated genes).
P value for the hypergeometric testing for enrichment of the GO category.
