1. I did edgeR analysis in order to find differentially expressed genes across different time points.
2. I've got p-values for all the genes and made histogram.
3. However, seeing p-value distribution, there exist genes that have a extreme peak in the range of (0.70,0.71). Please see the attached file. I think this implies that lots of genes are highly concentrated in this range of p-value. I am trying to figure out what causes this. Though I had a look at the corresponding read counts, I couldn't find any particular patterns.
I wonder in what cases this peak in p-value distribution happens?
I would really appreciate any kinds of tips.
Thank you in advance.
