Evidence of selectively driven codon usage in rice: Implications for GC content evolution ofGramineaegenes
2007
FEBS Letters
Two gene classes characterized by high and low GC content have been found in rice and other cereals, but not dicot genomes. We used paralogs with high and low GC contents in rice and found: (a) a greater increase in GC content at exonic fourfold-redundant sites than at flanking introns; (b) with reference to their orthologs in Arabidopsis, most substitution sites between the two kinds of paralogs are found at 2-and 4-degenerate sites with a T fi C mode, while A fi C and A fi G play major roles
