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
The chilling requirement (CR) is the main factor controlling the peach floral bud break and subsequent reproductive growth. To date, several peach CR quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been identified. To improve the accessibility and convenience of this genetic information for peach breeders, the aim of this study was to establish an easy-to-use genotype screening system using peach CR molecular markers as a toolkit for marker-assisted selection. Here, we integrated 22 CR-associated markers from three published QTLs and positioned them on the Prunus persica physical map. Then, we built a PCR-based genotyping platform by using high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis with specific primers and trained this platform with 27 peach cultivars. Due to ambiguous variant calls from a commercial HRM software, we developed an R-based pipeline using principal component analysis (PCA) to accurately differentiate genotypes. Based on the PCA results, this toolkit was able to determine the genotypes at the CR-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in all tested peach cultivars. In this study, we showed that this HRM-PCA pipeline served as a low-cost, high-throughput, and non-gel genotyping solution. This system has great potential to accelerate CR-focused peach breeding.
