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

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.

Codon usage bias in radioresistant bacteria [PDF]
Abstract The relationship between patterns of codon usage bias (CUB), the preferential usage of synonimous nucleotide triplets encoding the same amino acid, and radioresistance was investigated int he genomes of 16 taxonomically distinct radioresistant prokaryotic organisms and in a control set of 11 non-radioresistant bacteria.

The Codon Statistics Database: A Database of Codon Usage Bias
Abstract We present the Codon Statistics Database, an online database that contains codon usage statistics for all the species with reference or representative genomes in RefSeq (over 15,000). The user can search for any species and access two sets of tables.

Evolution of Codon Usage Bias in Diatoms [PDF]
Codon usage bias (CUB)—preferential use of one of the synonymous codons, has been described in a wide range of organisms from bacteria to mammals, but it has not yet been studied in marine phytoplankton. CUB is thought to be caused by weak selection for translational accuracy and efficiency.

Codon Bias Patterns of $E.coli$'s Interacting Proteins [PDF]
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.

Codon usage and codon context bias in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous [PDF]
Synonymous codons are used differentially in organisms from the three domains of life, a phenomenon referred to as codon usage bias. In addition, codon pair bias, particularly in the 3' codon context, has also been described in several organisms and is associated with the accuracy and rate of translation. An improved understanding of both types of bias

Codon Usage of Hepatitis E Viruses: A Comprehensive Analysis
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen with multiple species and genotypes, which may be classified into human, animal, and zoonotic HEV. Codon usage bias of HEV remained unclear.

Distinct responses to rare codons in select Drosophila tissues
Codon usage bias has long been appreciated to influence protein production. Yet, relatively few studies have analyzed the impacts of codon usage on tissue-specific mRNA and protein expression.

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