Number of SNPs with a significant HWE deviation = 263 (4.5%)§

*Successful SNPs are those with a call frequency > 0.85 and MAF > 0 based on an analysis of 260 trees.

Successful calls are those with a GenCall score ≥ 0.15 [19].

§ Tested using an exact test of HWE and a probability level of 0.9 × 10-5 (i.e., Bonferroni-corrected P-value of 0.05 based on 5847 SNPs).
