Why do you think your paper is highly cited?
Frankly I am surprised that it is one of
the most cited recent papers! I suspect that the paper is
highly cited because it describes biophysical properties
of an entirely new photoreceptor module with unique
photochemical properties within the new class of plant
photoreceptors we recently characterized, namely the
phototropins. It has attracted the attention of a fairly
large number of spectroscopists all of whom have wonderful
instruments and are ever searching for a new system to
exploit (something that they are doing really elegantly).
