Genetic Evolution and Molecular Selection of the HE Gene of Influenza C Virus [PDF]
, 2019 Influenza C virus (ICV) was first identified in humans and swine, but recently also in cattle, indicating a wider host range and potential threat to both the livestock industry and public health than was originally anticipated.

Evolution of codon usage bias in Drosophila [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997 We first review what is known about patterns of codon usage bias inDrosophilaand make the following points: (i)Drosophilagenes are as biased or more biased than those in microorganisms. (ii) The level of bias of genes and even the particular pattern of codon bias can remain phylogenetically invariant for very long periods of evolution.

Synthetic gene design - The rationale for codon optimization and implications for molecular pharming in plants. [PDF]
, 2017 Degeneracy in the genetic code allows multiple codon sequences to encode the same protein. Codon usage bias in genes is the term given to the preferred use of particular synonymous codons.

Codon usage bias and environmental adaptation in microbial organisms [PDF]
Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2021 Abstract In each genome, synonymous codons are used with different frequencies; this general phenomenon is known as codon usage bias. It has been previously recognised that codon usage bias could affect the cellular fitness and might be associated with the ecology of microbial organisms.

Codon usage bias reveals genomic adaptations to environmental conditions in an acidophilic consortium. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The analysis of codon usage bias has been widely used to characterize different communities of microorganisms. In this context, the aim of this work was to study the codon usage bias in a natural consortium of five acidophilic bacteria used for biomining.
