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
A new chromosomal race of the wingless grasshopper Podisma pedestris has been found in the Pyrenees In addition to two previously described in the Alps (XO and XY races). The differences which characterize the populations in the Pyrenees concern the amount, distribution and richness, in terms of base pair repeats, of the heterochromatic regions and the position of the nucleolus organizer regions in the X chromosome. While populations in the Alps have GC-rich procentric and distal heterochromatin, populations in the Pyrenees have more procentric heterochromatin formed by AT-plus GC-rich DNA in some chromosomes and absence of distal heterochromatin. Active NORs in the X chromosome from alpine populations are located in the distal region, irrespective of the chromosomal race, while the active NOR in the X in the Pyrenean populations is proximally placed. Hybrids produced from laboratory crosses between all the races are viable and show the expected heterozygous karyotypes but no sign of meiotic dysfunction, at least in the male. © 1988, The Genetical Society of Great Britain.
