A few organisms use slightly different codes in their chromosomes (in the nucleus). The examples of these other nuclear codes are from Mycoplasma (Bacteria) and two different ciii ated protozoa (Eukarya). All nonplant mitochondria use variations of the universal code, whereas plant mitochondria use the universal code. The examples here are only a few of the different types known. 1
