The discussions in The Plant Genome mainly cover the fields of Genetics, Genome, Gene, Quantitative trait locus and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. The Genetics study featured in The Plant Genome draws connections with the study of Germplasm. The research on Germplasm tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Evolutionary biology, Genetic variation, Genetic diversity and Linkage disequilibrium.
The research on Genome featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Chromosome, Computational biology and DNA sequencing. The work tackled in the journal goes beyond the discipline of Gene as it also encompasses Botany. Association mapping, Genetic linkage and Agronomy are some topics wherein Quantitative trait locus research discussed in the journal have an impact.
Single-nucleotide polymorphism research discussed in it aim to provide more information in the subject of Genotype. The concepts on Genetic marker presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Microsatellite and Gene mapping. Topics in Plant breeding explored in The Plant Genome were investigated in conjunction with research in Selection (genetic algorithm) and Breeding program.
The most cited papers mainly deal with areas of study such as Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genome and Plant breeding. The published papers feature Genetics research that overlaps with concepts in Germplasm. While the published articles focused on Single-nucleotide polymorphism, they were also able to explore topics like Genotyping, Allele and Candidate gene.
The Plant Genome explores disciplines such as Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Gene, Germplasm and Genome. Studies on Genetics discussed in The Plant Genome link to the field of Powdery mildew. Quantitative trait locus research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Genome-wide association study, Cultivar, Horticulture, Genetic linkage and Allele.
The research on Germplasm tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Biotechnology, Linkage disequilibrium, Genetic diversity and Plant breeding. Some problems in Genome that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Evolutionary biology, Brassica and Computational biology. The journal explores issues in Agronomy which can be linked to other research areas like Genetic gain, Selection (genetic algorithm) and Introgression.
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 The Plant Genome (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 The Plant Genome (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, 4.65% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 43.90% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.41% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.29% of all publications and 24.39% 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)Pursuing a degree in Plant Science and Agronomy opens doors to various interdisciplinary fields that contribute to sustainable agriculture and food security. For students interested in advancing their expertise, exploring related programs can enhance career prospects and specialization options.
Those aiming to integrate healthcare and plant sciences might consider msn to dnp programs, which bridge nursing leadership and advanced clinical practice, often intersecting with community health and nutrition. Meanwhile, enhancing knowledge in human nutrition complements agricultural studies; an online nutrition masters offers advanced insights into dietary science and food systems.
For those focused on diet planning and nutritional counseling, an online nutritionist degree provides foundational education in nutrient science and metabolism. Additionally, aspiring dietitians can explore cost-effective options like the online dietician program to gain credentials necessary for professional practice.
Exploring these interconnected pathways allows students to tailor their careers toward impactful roles in health, agriculture, and sustainability.
