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
Basidiomycete mating-type genes are encoded by two different factors resulting in a tetrapolar mating system where a cross can lead to one of four different reactions, only one of which results in a fertile state. Pairs of homeodomain transcription factors termed HD1 and HD2 classes constitute one factor (b genes in the smut fungi, A genes in the hymenomycete basidiomycetes). With the evolution of basidiomycetes, pheromone/receptor (P/R) systems (a genes in smut fungi and Bgenes in hymenomycetes) were co-opted to become independent master regulators constituting the second factor. Subsequently, the two sets of genes underwent evolutionary radiation with duplications, inversions and gene shuffling leading to the development of multiallelic HD and P/R systems, each functioning independently of the other. The multiallelic loci each developed many allelic specificities, resulting in tens of thousands of potential mating types for some species. An additional complexity of receptor gene homologues directly involved in mate discrimination has been revealed with the ready availability of genome sequences. Using examples derived from some model species, the molecular nature of the mating-type genes, the evolution of multiallelic and multispecific mating-type loci and the potential roles of newly detected receptor-like genes are discussed.
