The influence of different choices of cut-off P-values (P0) used in the refinement phase on the sensitivity (SN), the specificity (SP) and the accuracy (AC) of Design-Island applied to a manually curated data set of 1560 putative horizontally transferred genes of Salmonella typhi CT18 generated by Vernikos et al. [21] is shown in Fig. 2A. Fig. 2B shows corresponding variations of slopes of the curves for SN, SP and AC for different choices of cut-off P-values (P0).
