Genome-wide analysis of codon usage in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)

Abstract

values. Correspondence analysis conducted on RSCU values differentiated CDS based on their GC content and their characteristic feature and showed a discrete distribution. Moreover, by determining codon usage, we found out that majority of the lignan biosynthesis related genes showed a weaker codon usage bias. These results provide insights into understanding codon evolution in sesame.
