摘要：

The information content of DNA molecules has been calculated for various organisms using experimentally measured codon frequencies as well as those estimated theoretically. A direct relationship between the information content and the evolutionary rank of the organism is observed. The biological and physical significance of information content in the context of evolution is discussed. © 1979.
