Poisson Modelling For Snp

I have a list of SNPs .How should i do a poisson model for it?

snp

Please provide more detail of what you want to achieve.

I need to find p-value for each SNP assuming a poisson distribution.I need to know how to calculate the mean value of SNP for each gene.

This is not much more detail...

No, it isn't. "Mean value of SNP for each gene" - what values are being measured? "p-value for each SNP" - what exactly are you comparing and expecting to be different? "Assuming a poisson distribution" - of what?

I wouldn't use a poisson distribution. It's more correct to use the binomial distribution and use each SNP independently.
