Title	The genome sequence of the most widely cultivated cacao type and its use to identify candidate genes regulating pod color
Published in	Genome Biology (Online Edition), October 2013
DOI	10.1186/gb-2013-14-6-r53
Pubmed ID	23731509

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 198. 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 May 2019.

All research outputs

#149,541

of 21,738,040 outputs

Outputs from Genome Biology (Online Edition)

#53

of 4,003 outputs

Outputs of similar age

#943

of 175,449 outputs

Outputs of similar age from Genome Biology (Online Edition)

of 33 outputs

Altmetric has tracked 21,738,040 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 99th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.

So far Altmetric has tracked 4,003 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 27.7. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% 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 175,449 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 99% of its contemporaries.

We're also able to compare this research output to 33 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
