English: Simplified diagram showing codon bias in hydropathy - molar volume space.
The strongest components (bias) for the encoding of anino acid residues are, in order: C in 2nd position = NCN = C2 -> small size, medium hydropathy U in 2nd position = NUN = U2 -> average size, hydrophobic A in 2nd position = NAN = A2 -> average size, hydrophilic U in 1st position = UNN = U1 -> not hydrophilic where N is any of {A, C, G, U} The y-axis is accurate (cubic Angstroms), but the x-axis could have some error from estimates of hydropathy. Redrawn from Figure 4 in http://www.complexity.org.au/ci/vol01/fullen01/html/ which attributes the graph to Yang, M. M., W. J. Coleman and D. C. Youvan. 1990. In Reaction Centers of Photosynthetic Bacteria. M.-E. Michel-Beyerle. (Ed.)
