Marine Genomics

Top Research Topics at Marine Genomics?

Marine Genomics explores disciplines such as Genetics, Gene, Genome, Ecology and Transcriptome. The Genetics research presented places emphasis on topics like Phylogenetic tree, DNA sequencing, Mitochondrial DNA, Microsatellite and Contig. The Phylogenetic tree study tackled is a key component of adjacent topics in the area of Phylogenetics.

Issues in Gene were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Molecular biology and Computational biology. In Marine Genomics, Botany and Microbiology are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Genome research. Ecology studies presented in Marine Genomics focus on topics such as Biodiversity, Ecosystem and Adaptation.

The Transcriptome works featured in Marine Genomics incorporate elements from Evolutionary biology and Zoology. It connects the study in Evolutionary biology with the closely related area of Genomics. While Whole genome sequencing is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Plasmid, Strain (biology), Circular bacterial chromosome and Bacteria.

The journal papers explore issues in Ecology which can be linked to other research areas like Zoology and Biological dispersal. The most cited publications explore studies in Gene as part of the wider topic of Biochemistry.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

• Gene
• Bacteria
• Ecology

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal mainly tackles studies in Genome, Microsatellite, Gene, Annotation and Huso dauricus. The work on Genome tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like KEGG, DNA sequencing and Halomonas. The Gene research discussed is included in the broader subject of Genetics.

While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Annotation, it also covered topics in Sequence assembly, UniGene, Genomic research, Muraenesox and Computational biology. The studies on Computational biology discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Transcriptome and Coding region. Marine Genomics explores issues in Huso dauricus which can be linked to other research areas like Evolutionary biology, Huso and Acipenser.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• De novo assembly and annotation of the whole transcriptome of Muraenesox cinereus. (0 citations)
• Genome sequencing and comparative genomics analysis of Halomonas sp. MT13 reveal genetic adaptation to deep-sea environment (0 citations)
• The full-length transcriptome sequencing of three sturgeons reveals the occurrence of whole genome duplication event (0 citations)

Papers citation over time

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.

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 2022 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 66.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 33.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 0.00% 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.
