Figure 3.

Codon and amino acid usage in different trematodes. Coding sequences of more than 500 amino acids from diverse trematodes were collected and analyzed for their codon and amino acid usage. The graphs indicate (A) the total frequency of use of each codon in diverse trematodes, (B) the total frequency of use of each amino acid in the diverse trematodes species analyzed: Fasciola hepatica (red) Echinostoma paraensei (yellow) Opisthorchis viverrini (green) Clonorchis sinensis (purple), Schistosoma japonicum (sky-blue) and Schistosoma mansoni (blue).
