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
The aim of the experiments reported here was to study possible long-term effects of Neodiprion sertifer Geoff. (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae) herbivory, or artificial defoliation, on oxidative enzyme activities in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) needles as a consequence of induced defense responses. During year 1 (the first season), defoliation by N. sertifer, which feeds on previous season's needles, did not result in statistically significant changes in polyphenol oxidase activity in the current year's needles. In contrast, defoliation did lead to increased peroxidase activity in those needles. In the second season (year 2) N. sertifer defoliation of pine seedlings, also defoliated in the previous season either by larvae or artificially, resulted in a decrease of peroxidase activity in the current year's needles. No significant differences between treatments carried out in year 1 were found in year 2 for peroxidase activity in the previous year's needles. However, defoliation in year 1 by N. sertifer resulted in decreased needle consumption, and higher mortality of larvae, in year two. These results indicate the existence of long-term changes in needle oxidative enzyme activities as a consequence of N. sertifer feeding. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009.
