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
Seed regulation is being governed by seed legislation, whereas the legal framework for protecting intellectual property rights (IPR) on plant varieties is provided by the Plant Variety Protection (PVP) law. Many countries consider plant varieties as intellectual property and provide legal protection for them. Protection is offered to plant varieties which are developed through conventional as well as modern breeding methodologies, viz. marker-assisted selection, genomic selection, and genome editing. This book chapter summarizes genesis of IPR; PVP; Plant Breeder's Rights (PBR); International Union for the Protection of New Plant Varieties (UPOV)/World Trade Organization (WTO) guidelines; Genetic Use Restriction Treaty (GURT); distinctness, uniformity, and stability (DUS) criteria; testing procedure; national and international laws in IPR; modern plant breeding technologies (MPBT) alternative to genetically modifed organisms (GMO); gene patenting in rice; and salient features of the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers' Rights Act (PPVFRA).
