title: [Use of codons in plant lectins].
abstract: Codon usage in the coding region of mature lectins has been examined for 11 plant species (8 leguminoseae, 1 euphorbiaceae, 2 gramineae). The different legume lectins exhibit nearly the same codon usage pattern whereas the choice for the silent position of codons is non-random.
