Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: For decades, codon usage has been used as a measure of adaptation for translational efficiency and translation accuracy of a gene's coding sequence. These patterns of codon usage reflect both the selective and mutational environment in which the coding sequences evolved. Over this same period, gene transfer between lineages has become widely recognized as an important biological phenomenon....
