We found a correlation between the Aroma values and U3 s, G3 s and GC3s (p b 0.05), confirming that natural selection influences the codon usage bias of the FCV ORF2 gene. Thus, natural selection plays a major role in shaping the codon usage bias of ORF2 gene of FCV compared to mutational pressure. Here, we used ENC-Plots (Fig. 1) and PCA (Fig. 3) analysis according to the geographical distribution to investigate the major factors shaping the codon usage bias of the FCV ORF2 gene . Furthermore, analysis of the relationships between nucleotide composition and the codon contents at the third base positions suggested that mutation pressure is one of the factors in shaping the codon usage of FCV ORF2. ./cache/cord-293588-7pflfznh.txt ./txt/cord-293588-7pflfznh.txt
