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 establishment of the sensory nervous system of the antenna of the grasshopper Schistocerca gregaria was examined using immunocytochemical methods and in the light of the appendicular and articulated nature of this structure. The former is demonstrated first by the expression pattern of the segment polarity gene engrailed in the head neuromere innervating the antenna, the deutocerebrum. Engrailed expression is present in identified deutocerebral neuroblasts and, as elsewhere in the body, is continuous with cells of the posterior epithelium of the associated appendage, in this case the antenna. Second, early expression of the glial homeobox gene reversed polarity ( repo ) in the antenna is by a stereotypic pair of cells at the antenna base, a pattern we show is repeated metamerically for each thoracic appendage of the embryo. Subsequently, three regions of Repo expression (A1, A2, A3) are seen within the antenna, and may represent a preliminary form of articulation. Bromodeoxyuridine incorporation reveals that these regions are sites of intense cell differentiation. Neuron-specific horseradish peroxidase and Lazarillo expression confirm that the pioneers of the ventral and dorsal tracts of the antennal sensory nervous system are amongst these differentiating cells. Sets of pioneers appear simultaneously in several bands and project confluent axons towards the antennal base. We conclude that the sensory nervous system of the antenna is not pioneered from the tip of the antenna alone, but in a stepwise manner by cells from several zones. The early sensory nervous systems of antenna, maxilla and leg therefore follow a similar developmental program consistent with their serially homologous nature.
