The journal investigates areas of study like Horticulture, Botany, Agronomy, Cultivar and Shoot. Fruit tree, Postharvest, Rootstock, Rosaceae and Sowing are all aspects of Horticulture discussed in Hortscience. The Botany study tackling the subject of Germination is the focus of Hortscience.
The studies in Agronomy featured incorporate elements of Agroforestry, Production (economics) and Nitrogen.
The journal articles mainly tackle studies in Horticulture, Botany, Agronomy, Cultivar and Fruit tree. Horticulture study tackled in the journal papers is connected to the field of Irrigation. The most cited articles address concerns in the field of Botany by exploring it in line with topics in Solanaceae which intersect with Lycopersicon subjects.
Hortscience investigates studies in Horticulture, Cultivar, Agronomy, Botany and Quality (business). In it, Photosynthesis and Resistance (ecology) are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Horticulture research. The study on Agronomy featured in the journal expounds on the topic of Irrigation in particular.
It focused on Quality (business) research but expanded to cover Yield (finance).
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Hortscience (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Hortscience (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
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, 93.21% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 20.00% of all publications and 46.67% were from other institutions.
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.
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.
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:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2020)Studying Plant Science and Agronomy opens doors to diverse career paths, from research and environmental management to agricultural innovation and nutrition. Many students today seek flexible educational options, making online degrees an attractive choice. For those interested in expanding their knowledge about nutrition related to plant-based diets, exploring an accelerated nutrition degree can provide a fast-tracked route to expertise.
Similarly, individuals aiming to transition into healthcare roles linked to agricultural health and community wellness may consider accelerated programs like the accelerated BSN programs for non nurses California. These allow students without a nursing background to enter the field swiftly, often benefiting from the latest advancements in sciences connected to agronomy.
For those curious about advanced practice, understanding how long is NP school can help in planning a career that combines healthcare and plant science. Rapid educational pathways make it easier to achieve specialized roles that impact agricultural communities.
Additionally, programs like the fastest RN to BSN emphasize efficiency, allowing students to quickly earn credentials that can support roles in public health nutrition and agronomy-related healthcare sectors. These online options highlight the growing trend of fast, affordable education tailored to modern career demands.
