Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting 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.

Article Description
Hairy root cultures of Catharanthus roseus were established by infection with six different Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains. Two plant varieties were used and found to exhibit significantly different responses to infection. Forty-seven hairy root clones derived from normal plants and two derived from the flowerless variety were screened for their growth and indole alkaloid production. The growth rate and morphological appearance showed wide variations between the clones. The alkaloid spectra observed were qualitatively but not quantitatively very similar to that of the corresponding normal plant roots. No vindoline or deacetyltransferase activity could be detected in any of the cultures studied. O-acetylval-lesamine, an alkaloid which has not been previously observed in C. roseus was identified from extracts of hairy root clone No. 8. Two root clones were examined for their growth and alkaloid accumulation during a 26-day culture period. Alkaloid accumulation parallelled growth in both clones with ca. 2 mg ajmalicine and catharanthine per g dry weight being observed. © 1989 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
