Mutational Bias and Translational Selection Shaping the Codon Usage Pattern of Tissue-Specific Genes in Rice
Figure 2
Illustration of GC3 content variation for genes selectively expressed in different tissues.
For each tissue, the distribution of GC3 content is represented by a boxplot, where the lower, middle, and top horizontal lines of the boxes represent the 25%, 50%, and 75% quantiles, respectively. Initials of tissue names are indicated: se, seed; le, leaf; en, endosperm; sh, shoot; an, anther; ro, root; em, embryo.
