Title

Abstract

Recently, Lowry et al. (2016) addressed the ability of RADseq approaches to detect loci under selection in genome scans. While the authors raise an important consideration for designing studies and interpreting RADseq data, we strongly disagree with their overall view of the ability of RADseq to inform our understanding of the genetic basis of adaptation. RADseq is one of several techniques for population genomic studies, and all of them come with important trade-offs and limitations. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 47. 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 28 June 2023.
All research outputs
#1,122,600
of 34,279,751 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Ecology Resources
#60
of 2,129 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#17,262
of 354,897 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Ecology Resources
#3
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,279,751 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 96th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,129 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% 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 354,897 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
