Synonymous codon usage bias in plant mitochondrial genes is associated with intron number and mirrors species evolution.
Synonymous codon usage bias (SCUB) is a common event that a non-uniform usage of codons often occurs in nearly all organisms. We previously found that SCUB is correlated with both intron number and exon position in the plant nuclear genome but not in the plastid genome; SCUB in both nuclear and plas...
