Table 3. Results of chi-squared tests for differences in the frequencies of sex-biased vs. -unbiased genes, male- vs. female-biased genes, and candidate sex-determining genes (CG) vs. other genes (not CG) between the pseudoautosomal region (PAR), the sex-linked region (SL), linkage group 1 (LG1), and autosomes (Au).
