Dear R-listers, I want to reperfrom a poisson distribution test that presented in a recent-published biological research paper (Plant Physiology 2008, vol 148, pp. 1189-1200). That test is about the occurrence number of a kind of gene in separate chromosomes.
For instance: The observed gene number in chromosome A is 36. The expected gene number in chromosome A is 30. Then, the authors got a probability 0.137 by distribution test on this trial. In this test, a Poisson distribution was used to determine the significance of the gene distribution. Questions: How can I reperform this test in R? Thank you in advance.
