Negative decadic logarithms of p-values from bootstrap analysis of the 145 genomic segments across chromosomes. Negative decadic logarithms of p-values (−log(P)) from the bootstrap analysis show the significance in the increase and decrease of MPH-associated gene numbers compared to the gene number of the random gene distribution. Thresholds of 1 (blue line, p = 0.1), 1.3 (green line, p = 0.05) and 2 (red line, p = 0.01) were chosen for the identification of MPH-ASs.
