Abstract

Next-generation sequencing provides a rapid and powerful method for mutation identification. Herein is described a workflow for sample preparation to allow the simultaneous mapping and identification of candidate mutations by whole-genome sequencing in Caenorhabditis elegans. The protocol is designed for small numbers of worms to accommodate classes of mutations, such as lethal and sterile alleles, that are difficult to identify by traditional means.

Attention Score in Context

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 02 October 2015.
All research outputs
#17,774,664
of 22,829,683 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#7,236
of 13,125 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#241,888
of 353,131 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#431
of 997 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,829,683 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,125 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% 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 353,131 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 997 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 51% of its contemporaries.
