Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
With the advancement in technology, CRISPR/Cas9, a genome editing tool, has immense potential to revolutionize the agricultural sector by incorporating the desired traits in a very specific and efficient manner, thus enhancing the production yield. Genetic engineers employ this novel technology to develop crops resistance to various abiotic stresses such as heavy metals, drought, salinity, temperature, and biotic stress like fungus, virus, and bacteria. Moreover, this genome editing tool helps biotechnologists to develop crops with high nutritional profile to reduce malnutrition throughout the globe. Therefore, it is considered as a revolutionary technology of twenty-first century that helps to mitigate environmental stress and enhance agricultural production to meet the demands of growing population. In this review, we describe the applications of CRISPR/Cas9 technology in the field of agriculture.
