  1. Generated using data when no binning procedure was used. The number of genes present in the associated list (Additional file 2) compared to the total number of genes in the horse genome, as well as corresponding P-values, are shown for each functional category. These functional categories are disproportionately represented by the genes found within ROH islands in Sable Island horses
