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.

Review Description
As global pollution escalates, plants increasingly encounter microplastic and metal contaminants in their habitats, posing severe challenges to their growth, physiology, and overall health. This review delves into the transformative potential of nanotechnology in bolstering plant resilience against such pollutants. Nanoparticles, with their unique properties, present promising strategies to protect plants from microplastic-induced physical obstruction and chemical toxicity, as well as from heavy metal stress. In the backdrop of mounting environmental stressors, nanoparticles can play a pivotal role in enhancing the uptake, sequestration, and detoxification processes in plants. By understanding the intricate mechanisms through which nanoparticles act, researchers can potentially develop targeted applications to mitigate the detrimental effects of microplastics and heavy metals. This exploration not only brings to the fore the immediate benefits of using nanoparticles but also underlines the need for a comprehensive assessment of their environmental impact to ensure sustainable applications in the future.
