Evidence from simulation studies for selective constraints on the codon usage of the Angiosperm psbA gene

Evidence from simulation studies for selective constraints on the codon usage of the Angiosperm psbA gene

The codon usage of the Angiosperm psbA gene is atypical for flowering plant chloroplast genes but similar to the codon usage observed in highly expressed plastid genes from some other Plantae, particularly Chlorobionta, lineages. The pattern of codon bias in these genes is suggestive of selection fo...
