Evolutionary genetics

weak selection on synonymous codons for faster or more accurate translation, tested by codon bias at conserved amino acid sites.

In evolutionary genetics, translational selection refers to weak selection on synonymous codons for faster or more accurate translation, tested by codon bias at conserved amino acid sites. This meaning comes from Akashi (1994) in Genetics.[1]
