| Abstract |
In plant cells, most microRNAs (miRNAs) perform cleavages of target mature mRNAs in the cytoplasm. A recent report of a miRNA pathway involved in DNA methylation in the rice nucleus raises the possibility that plant miRNAs could cleave intron-containing pre-mRNAs (the precursor of messenger RNAs) located in the nucleus. |

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 03 December 2013.
All research outputs
#16,794,128
of 24,701,594 outputs
Outputs from Rice
#196
of 413 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#128,218
of 201,422 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Rice
#4
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,701,594 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 413 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. 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 201,422 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
