Ranks in the top 46% for downstream scientific impact
DataRank reads this dataset's downstream impact straight off the citation graph — no black box, no proprietary weighting. How is this computed?
FAIR checklist signals are shown for context only and do not affect DataRank scoring.
Full FAIR picture · advisory
The headline score is computed from the scored criteria — the fact-shaped checks (a repository, an accession, a licence) that two independent models agree on. The advisory criteria below are real FAIR guidance but rest on judgment calls that models read differently, so they inform without moving the number.
“The phage L genome sequence and annotations have been deposited in GenBank (accession L_cI-40_13-am43 MW013502 and L_cII-101 MW013503 ).”
The paper provides GenBank accessions (MW013502, MW013503), which are persistent identifiers in the repository accession scheme. [majority verdict 'yes' (3/5 passes agreed)]
