Journal of Phytopathology is mainly concerned with subjects like Botany, Horticulture, Microbiology, Virology and Inoculation. Botany, which encompasses Fungi imperfecti, Cultivar, Spore, Conidium and Mycelium, is the main subject of it. Most of the works presented in Journal of Phytopathology deals with Horticulture but it intersects with the subject of Agronomy.
The Agronomy works, particularly on Poaceae are tackled in Journal of Phytopathology. Microbiology research is concerned with Pathogen in particular. Journal of Phytopathology focuses on different Virology studies like Virus, Plant virus, Tobacco mosaic virus and Potyvirus.
The most cited publications mainly deal with areas of study such as Botany, Horticulture, Microbiology, Fungi imperfecti and Inoculation. The most cited publications explore research in Botany and the adjacent study of Solanaceae. The most cited articles hold forums on Microbiology that merge themes from other disciplines such as Polymerase chain reaction and Bacteria.
Journal of Phytopathology mostly deals with topics like Horticulture, Botany, Genetics, Microbiology and Genetic diversity. Discussions in it are anchored in the subject of Horticulture and the similar topic of Genotype. The journal focuses on Genotype but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Rhizoctonia solani and Resistance (ecology).
In it, Pathogenicity and Host resistance are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Botany research. Research on Genetics presented in the journal focuses, in particular, on Phenotype, Mating type and Polymerase chain reaction. It covers Fungicide research under the subject of Agronomy.
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 Journal of Phytopathology (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 Journal of Phytopathology (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, 7.59% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 12.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 9.59% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 12.33% of all publications and 65.75% 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)For students interested in broadening their expertise beyond Plant Science and Agronomy, exploring online degrees in nutrition offers valuable complementary skills. A masters in nutrition can deepen your understanding of how plant-based foods impact human health and agricultural sustainability.
Those starting their journey might consider the best online nutrition degree programs, which provide foundational knowledge in nutritional science while accommodating busy schedules with flexible learning options.
For cost-conscious learners, the nutritionist degree path offers affordable routes to becoming a certified nutrition expert, essential for careers in dietetics and food science industries closely linked to agronomy.
Additionally, if time is a priority, exploring the nutritionist bachelor degree online options can help accelerate career advancement without compromising on the quality of education. Combining plant science with nutrition creates dynamic career pathways in sustainable agriculture, food technology, and health sciences.
