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
Young inflorescences of Tradescantia (BNL clone 02) heterozygous for flower color were treated with 0 (water), 0.1 or 0.5% EMS solutions for 2, 4, 8 or 16 hr. The frequency of somatic pink mutations in the stamen hairs scored 10–18 days after treatments was higher with the higher concentration of EMS and increased with lengthening duration of the treatment. The mutation frequency was also found to be clearly a function of the EMS dose in %·hr. The frequency of mutation increases with EMS dose; on a log-log graph the slopes were 1.37 or 1.31, when the mutation frequency was expressed as the number of pink mutant events per 10 3 hairs or per 10 5 cell divisions, respectively. That the slopes are steeper than 1 suggests the involvement of two-break deletions, but the possibility of insufficient penetration of EMS in cases of shorter treatments cannot be ruled out. The mutation frequencies observed were somewhat comparable to those induced by 0.25 to 10 rad of sparsely ionizing radiations at various dose rates. (1 − 4, 6, 16, 17)
