This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. 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 05 May 2026.
All research outputs
#11,840,671
of 33,704,742 outputs
Outputs from Molecular Biology and Evolution
#3,964
of 6,179 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#98,402
of 362,609 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Molecular Biology and Evolution
#61
of 101 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,704,742 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 64th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,179 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 16.9. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% 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 362,609 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 101 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
