Overview

Top Research Topics at Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding?

The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Agronomy, Cultivar, Botany, Genetics and Plant disease resistance. Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding covers various topics on Agronomy such as Crop yield, Winter wheat, Germplasm, Plant breeding and Plant morphology. Topics in Cultivar explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Inoculation and Resistance (ecology).

While Botany is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Genetic variation and Genetic diversity. Gene, Genetic marker, Genotype, Genome and Allele are all aspects of Genetics discussed in Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding. Genetic marker research presented in it encompasses a variety of subjects, including Microsatellite and Amplified fragment length polymorphism.

The objective of Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding is to combine knowledge in the areas of Genetics, Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Identification (biology) and Horticulture. The research on Gene tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Isolation (microbiology) and Catharanthus roseus. Topics in Quantitative trait locus were tackled in line with various other fields like Backcrossing, Whole genome sequencing, Stripe rust and Nicotiana tabacum.

The work on Identification (biology) tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Brassica, Cucurbita, Cultivar and Gene family. The research on Horticulture featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Resistance (ecology) and Exon. Research in Allele and the interrelating topic of Locus (genetics), Panicle, Bulked segregant analysis, Germplasm and Botany were among the subjects of interest in the Exon studies discussed in Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Effect of terminal heat stress on physiological traits, grain zinc and iron content in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (1 citations)
  • Phylogenetics of native conifer species in Vietnam based on two chloroplast gene regions rbcL and matK (1 citations)

Papers citation over time

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 100.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, nan% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another nan% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included nan% of all publications and nan% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
