This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 31 July 2025.
All research outputs
#21,049,580
of 31,763,039 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Biology and Evolution
#4,924
of 5,929 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#141,157
of 336,584 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Biology and Evolution
#78
of 97 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,763,039 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,929 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 17.0. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 336,584 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 56% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 97 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
