Dot mark in 1000 genome project

Excuse me:

When I annotated the variants using annovar with 1000genome project. Some of the results were marked with dot mark. Did these signs mean frequency value of zero or non have been annotated?

Any thing that helps me understand the issue would be much appreciated.

Best!

annovar
