Codon Usage Bias in Phytoplankton [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Non-random usage of synonymous codons, known as “codon bias”, has been described in many organisms, from bacteria to Drosophila, but little is known about it in phytoplankton.

CBDB: The codon bias database [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2012 Background In many genomes, a clear preference in the usage of particular codons exists. The mechanisms that induce codon biases remain an open question; studies have attributed codon usage to translational selection, mutational bias and drift ...

Codon Bias Patterns of $E.coli$'s Interacting Proteins [PDF]
, 2015 Synonymous codons, i.e., DNA nucleotide triplets coding for the same amino acid, are used differently across the variety of living organisms. The biological meaning of this phenomenon, known as codon usage bias, is still controversial.

Comparative analysis of codon usage patterns of FUT2 from different species
Kuwait Journal of Science, 2022 Enterotoxigenic E. coli is an important zoonotic pathogen causing diarrhea in human and newborn animals. α - (1,2) fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) is closely associated with the formation of pathogenic receptors of Enterotoxigenic E. coli.
