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.

Book Chapter Description
This chapter discusses the biosynthesis and metabolism in myo -inositol. The awareness about the role of myo -inositol in carbohydrate metabolism emerges not only from an appreciation of the biosynthetic origin and metabolic fate of myo -inositol in higher plants, but also from the realization that hitherto unknown or poorly understood biochemical processes may at present be reconsidered in the light of new observations. Virtually, nothing is known concerning the regulation of myo -inositol biosynthesis, myo -Inositol-1-P synthase appears to be the only enzyme involved in myo-inositol biosynthesis, plant or animal. Conversion of myo -inositol-1-P to inositol must be studied more thoroughly as the free inositol pool is a very important nutritional reserve to the newly germinating seed or the germinating pollen grain. In regard to the metabolism of myo -inositol, there is very little information available regarding the fate of myo -inositol as derived from the reserves of phytic acid in the germinating seed. The information gathered suggests that the core substance of phytic acid is every bit as useful to the new plant as the phosphate it sheds.
