Genome Sequences of Five Type Strain Members of the Archaeal Family Sulfolobaceae , Acidianus ambivalens, Acidianus infernus, Stygiolobus azoricus, Sulfuracidifex metallicus, and Sulfurisphaera ohwakuensis is a dataset published in Microbiology Resource Announcements (2020). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.385, placing it in the top 47.1% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 10 times, with 4 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 64/100.

Linked data & code
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.
“BioProject accession no. PRJNA488459 PRJNA488459 PRJNA488459 PRJNA463410 PRJNA488459”
The paper provides BioProject, BioSample, and genome accession numbers for the five genomes in Table 1, which are persistent identifiers issued by NCBI.
