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
Cashew is a dollar earning crop, introduced to India from Brazil, by Portuguese travellers, and it is one of the commercially important nut crops in the world owing to its nutritional value and export earnings. Cashew belongs to the family Anacardiaceae which is having other species also with great socio-economic importance. Cashew being perennial in nature consists of wide diversity with respect to plant vigour, canopy, yield, bold nut, cashew nut shell liquid, shelling percentage, cluster bearing, big apple types, early maturity, etc. The variability among and within the family has made cashew as a genetic heritage for conservation as well as crop improvement programmes. Among this, pigmented cashew stands as a unique cashew type with whole plant in purple colour which serve as a morphological marker as well as contribute to the genetic divergence with respect to quantitative as well as qualitative traits. Therefore, in this study, we documented the important features of this natural mutant purple cashew which stand apart as a novel cashew genotype.
