If we use the v101 transliteration, herbal section, as the corpus of reference, as illustrated in the tables below, there is in most cases a large difference between the frequency of the Voynich glyph (or glyphs) and that of the Persian letter (or letters) proposed to correspond. 

The Persian letter frequencies are from a corpus of modern Persian, and the frequency analysis would be better if based on Middle Persian (for example the Ruba'iyat of Omar Khayyam); but I'm inclined to think that the frequencies in Middle Persian would not be much different.
I just noticed here some vowels from Table 1 are confused with other vowels/letters, for A it should be ـَ and for V it should be ـُ
ـُ is basically an O, while ء is pronounced like ae similar to ع
