Causes and implications of codon usage bias in RNA viruses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Choice of synonymous codons depends on nucleotide/dinucleotide composition of the genome (termed mutational pressure) and relative abundance of tRNAs in a cell (translational pressure).

Comparative analysis of codon usage bias and codon context patterns between dipteran and hymenopteran sequenced genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Codon bias is a phenomenon of non-uniform usage of codons whereas codon context generally refers to sequential pair of codons in a gene. Although genome sequencing of multiple species of dipteran and hymenopteran insects have been completed only a few of
