On the one hand, Baugh's research demonstrated a sharp bias against black or Chicano dialects.

In contrast, a huge disparity in transition bias exists between these codon positions in the b-like alleles, due to the combined effects of a modest bias towards transitions at positions 1+2 and a sharp bias towards transversions at the third position.

CAI values range from 0 to 1 with higher values indicating more codon usage bias (Sharp and Li 1987).

Species exposed to selection for rapid growth have more rRNA operons, more tRNA genes, and a greater propensity for translationally selected codon usage bias (Sharp et al. 2005).

This is evident in yeast where codon usage differs between highly and lowly expressed genes in both the level and nature of the bias (Sharp et al. 1986).

A number of factors affect selective constraint levels acting on genes, including expression level and breadth (Duret and Mouchiroud 2000; Pál et al. 2001; Subramanian and Kumar 2004), codon bias (Sharp 1991; Pál et al. 2001), the length of the encoded proteins (Subramanian and Kumar 2004), or molecular function (Castillo-Davis et al. 2004).

For each age group first names were obtained from a website (www.beliebte-vornamen.de) listing commonly used German first names per decades that were assigned to the estimated age of the face to rule out sharp and possibly biasing contrasts between faces and names due to age effects (i.e. combining an "old" face with a "modern" name).

Several genes exhibit sharp contrasts in parental bias between the brain and body.

Juvenile zebrafish subjected to heat-killed bacteria showed a sharp increase in female bias at adulthood: transcriptomic analysis of the underlying processes identified the upregulation of NF-кB pathway through induced inflammation as the cause [ 133].

Under the mutation selection drift model of codon bias evolution (Sharp and Li 1986; Bulmer 1991), AT-ending codons are weakly deleterious and are more likely to be fixed in regions of lower recombination, whereas GC-ending codons are slightly beneficial and more likely to be fixed in regions of higher recombination owing to Hill Robertson effects (Hill and Robertson 1966; Comeron et al. 1999).
