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
Shigella fiexneri phage SGF2 is a novel lytic phage isolated from a sewage sample. Morphological characterization indicates that phage SGF2 is a member of the Podoviridae family, producing virions with an isometric head (82.6 ± 8 nm diameter) and a short non-contractile tail (length 52 ± 8 nm). This phage specifically infected the Shigella fiexneri. One-step growth curves indicated that the burst period of phage SGF2 is 30 min, with an approximate burst size of 38. The full-length genome was sequenced and potential virulence genes were detected. We will discuss the potential application of phage SGF2 in phage therapy.
