| Abstract |
Hydractinia species have been animal models in developmental biology and comparative immunology for over a century, but are having a renaissance due to the establishment of modern genetic and genomic tools by the growing community of researchers utilizing them. Hydractinia has a predictable and accessible life cycle and its stem cell system, known as interstitial- or i-cells has been a paradigm for animal stem cells since the late 1800s. In adult Hydractinia, i-cells continuously provide progenitors to sustain clonal growth, tissue homeostasis, sexual reproduction and regeneration. We review recent developments in stem cell and regeneration research centered on this animal. Hydractinia joins an established team of cnidarian genetic models in times of rapid progress in these disciplines. While each animal is particularly suited to specific experimental settings, jointly they can provide an integrative insight into the diversity of animal stem cell systems, how they drive regeneration, and how they evolved. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. 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 21 January 2020.
All research outputs
#6,556,660
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Current Opinion in Genetics & Development
#659
of 1,740 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#100,989
of 366,069 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Opinion in Genetics & Development
#14
of 50 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,740 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% 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 366,069 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 50 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 72% of its contemporaries.
