Rapid divergence of codon usage patterns within the rice genome [PDF]
, 2007 Background Synonymous codon usage varies widely between genomes, and also between genes within genomes. Although there is now a large body of data on variations in codon usage, it is still not clear if the observed patterns reflect the effects of ...

Codon usage in nucleopolyhedroviruses
Journal of General Virology, 2000 Phylogenetic analyses based on baculovirus polyhedrin nucleotide and amino acid sequences revealed two major nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) clades, designated Group I and Group II. Subsequent phylogenetic analyses have revealed three Group II subclades, designated A, B and C.

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