Abstract

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is the best-characterized virus. Compared to most other viruses, its structure and physical and chemical properties are well known. TMV exclusively infects plants and is completely harmless for mammals. This virus is resilient against environmental changes, and it can easily be modified with functional materials. Our review gives a summary about the known physical properties of TMV (structure, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism). We believe that the current progress in nanobiotechnology makes the fabrication of functional TMV-based biotechnology devices simpler than ever.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 June 2020.
All research outputs
#4,167,683
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Trends in Biotechnology
#899
of 2,856 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#33,730
of 206,375 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Trends in Biotechnology
#7
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,856 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 206,375 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
