Abstract	We have built a series of Neurospora crassa strains containing alleles of green fluorescent protein (GFP) to provide a visual phenotype for investigating meiotic recombination. These strains provide a convenient means of screening the Neurospora knockout library for genes involved in genetic recombination. They permit rapid analysis of recombination outcomes by allowing visualization of segregation patterns in a large number of octads from crosses heterozygous for GFP. Using this system the effect of a knockout on gene conversion and/or on crossing over between the fluorescent marker and the centromere can be measured.

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 10 April 2017.

All research outputs

#20,413,129

of 22,963,381 outputs

Outputs from Methods in molecular biology

#9,917

of 13,136 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#268,918

of 308,501 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology

#237

of 303 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 22,963,381 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.

So far Altmetric has tracked 13,136 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% 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 308,501 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.

We're also able to compare this research output to 303 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
