Correlation of tRNA gene counts per anticodon across yeast species. (A) A high degree of correlation between the distribution of tRNA genes among the anticodon identities exists between most Schizosaccharomyces species with the exception of japonicus. Pearson correlation coefficients are noted and summarized in Table 4. (B,C) Phylogenetic trees derived for the four Schizo species based on their 18S rRNAs (B) and tRNA (C), as indicated.
