Native Plants Journal was organized to reinforce research efforts on Botany, Agronomy, Germination, Native plant and Ecology. Botany research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Endangered species and Horticulture. Topics like Germplasm, Poaceae, Sowing, Rangeland and Perennial plant are tackled as part of the discussions on Agronomy.
The work on Germplasm tackled in it brings together disciplines like Revegetation and Habitat. It concentrates on Germination topics that focus on Scarification, Stratification (seeds), Dormancy and Seed dormancy. The Native plant works featured in it incorporate elements from Agroforestry and Restoration ecology.
It is focused mainly on Ecology, particularly Introduced species.
The most cited papers primarily tackle Agronomy, Ecology, Agroforestry, Native plant and Botany. The published papers explore research in Agronomy alongside concepts in Artemisia and other areas of study in Reproductive success, Subgenus, Land reclamation and Subspecies. The study of Native plant in the published articles encompasses disciplines such as Restoration ecology, as well as fields such as Ecosystem, Introduced species and Environmental resource management, all of which overlap with one another.
Agronomy, Forb, Horticulture, Agroforestry and Botany are among the topics commonly tackled in Native Plants Journal. Native Plants Journal explores topics in Agronomy which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Variation (linguistics) and Container (type theory). Topics in Forb explored in it were investigated in conjunction with research in Cover (algebra) and Rangeland.
The journal covers research in Horticulture, particularly Cutting and Germination and how they are related with concepts in Peperomia. The work on Agroforestry tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Natural (archaeology) and Germplasm. While work presented in the journal provided substantial information on Botany, it also covered topics in Vernal pool and Lomatium cookii.
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 Native Plants Journal (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 Native Plants Journal (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, 12.50% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 71.43% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 14.29% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.14% of all publications and 7.14% 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.

(2021)Studying Plant Science and Agronomy opens the door to a variety of related fields that focus on improving health and sustainability. For those interested in healthcare and plant-based nutrition, pursuing a accelerated np programs can offer a fast track to becoming a nurse practitioner with a specialized focus on nutrition or environmental health.
Graduate students may also explore online dnp programs to gain advanced practice knowledge that integrates agricultural science with clinical practice. These programs often emphasize evidence-based approaches to improve public health, especially through diet and sustainable food systems.
Additionally, earning a masters degree in nutrition or a nutritionist degree online can complement a background in agronomy by focusing on the science of diet, food quality, and their impacts on human well-being.
These academic pathways provide flexibility and affordability, making it easier for students to tailor careers that bridge plant sciences, nutrition, and healthcare, advancing both environmental and human health goals.
