| Abstract |
Since its introduction in 1993, the GAL4 system has become an essential part of the Drosophila geneticist's toolkit. Widely used to drive gene expression in a multitude of cell- and tissue-specific patterns, the system has been adapted and extended to form the basis of many modern tools for the manipulation of gene expression in Drosophila and other model organisms. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. 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 January 2018.
All research outputs
#13,131,140
of 22,893,031 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#3,418
of 13,134 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#182,654
of 393,734 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#326
of 1,471 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,893,031 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,134 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% 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 393,734 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 53% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,471 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
