Complete Chloroplast Genomes of Ranunculus arvensis and Ranunculus laetus: Comparative Analysis and Phylogenetic Insights

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Here, we de novo assembled the chloroplast genomes of Ranunculus arvensis and Ranunculus laetus, providing comprehensive comparative analysis with 21 congeners. The genomes exhibited conserved quadripartite structures with no major rearrangements, though lineage‐specific variations in atpH position were detected in two species.

Codon usage bias [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology Reports, 2021
Codon usage bias is the preferential or non-random use of synonymous codons, a ubiquitous phenomenon observed in bacteria, plants and animals. Different species have consistent and characteristic codon biases. Codon bias varies not only with species, family or group within kingdom, but also between the genes within an organism.

Selection on Codon Bias

Annual Review of Genetics, 2008
In a wide variety of organisms, synonymous codons are used with different frequencies, a phenomenon known as codon bias. Population genetic studies have shown that synonymous sites are under weak selection and that codon bias is maintained by a balance between selection, mutation, and genetic drift.

Codon bias and gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1991
The frequencies with which individual synonymous codons are used to code their cognate amino acids is quite variable from genome to genome and within genomes, from gene to gene. One particularly well documented codon bias is that associated with highly expressed genes in bacteria as well as in yeast; this is the so‐called major codon bias.

Codon Usage Bias: An Endless Tale

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2021
Since the genetic code is degenerate, several codons are translated to the same amino acid. Although these triplets were historically considered to be "synonymous" and therefore expected to be used at rather equal frequencies in all genomes, we now know that this is not the case. Indeed, since several coding sequences were obtained in the late '70s and

Relative Codon Adaptation Index, a Sensitive Measure of Codon Usage Bias

open access: yesEvolutionary Bioinformatics, 2010
We propose a simple, sensitive measure of synonymous codon usage bias, the Relative Codon Adaptation Index (rCAI), as a way to discriminate better between highly biased and unbiased regions, compared with the widely used Codon Adaptation Index (CAI). CAI is a geometric mean of the relative usage of codons in a gene, and is calculated using the codon ...
