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.

Article Description
Enterobacter amnigenus An11, that can colonize the gut of mosquito larva, is an alternative toxin-producing host to be used as a mosquito control since it is able to float in the feeding zone of mosquito larvae. To produce mosquito-larvicidal toxins in this bacterium, a native promoter has been identified from its genomic DNA. The promoter exhibited consensus sequences for -35 and -10 regions of bacterial promoters and constitutively drove the expression of gfp. This promoter was inserted into recombinant plasmids upstream of promoter-free cyt2Aa2 from Bacillus thuringiensis and mtx2 from Bacillus sphaericus. Results demonstrated that Cyt2Aa2 and Mtx2 are constitutively produced without induction. The recombinant E. amnigenus showed toxicity against mosquito larvae, demonstrating a potential to be applied in a mosquito control program. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
