The topics of Plasmid, Genetics, Molecular biology, Gene and Microbiology are the focal point of discussions in the journal. It focused on Plasmid research but expanded to cover Escherichia coli. It aims to address concerns in Escherichia coli, specifically in the areas of Enterobacteriaceae and PBR322.
Plasmid concentrates on Genetics topics that focus on Nucleic acid sequence, Transposable element, Open reading frame, Sequence analysis and Insertion sequence. The research on Nucleic acid sequence tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Peptide sequence and Rolling circle replication. Plasmid focuses on Molecular biology but sometimes tackles the closely related topic of Plasmid preparation which is concerned with T-DNA Binary system.
Topics like Genome, Operon, Promoter, Expression vector and Gene expression are tackled as part of the discussions on Gene. The presented Microbiology research focuses mostly on Shuttle vector and, on occasion, topics in Cloning vector. DNA replication is a major topic of DNA research presented in Plasmid.
The journal articles generally zeroe in on subjects such as Plasmid, Genetics, Molecular biology, Gene and Microbiology. In addition to Plasmid research, the most cited papers aim to explore topics under Nucleic acid sequence, Restriction enzyme and Escherichia coli. The Molecular biology research tackled in the journal papers is interrelated with Ti plasmid which concerns subjects like Octopine and Nopaline.
The journal facilitates discussions on Gene, Plasmid, Genetics, Cell biology and Mobile genetic elements. The journal features works in Gene, more specifically Gene expression, Expression vector and Virulence, and explores their relation to disciplines like Microfluidics. The Plasmid research dealing mostly with Replicon is the focus of the journal.
Research in Promoter and the interrelating topic of Cell, Fusion gene and Immediate early gene were among the subjects of interest in the Cell biology studies discussed in it. Plasmid addresses concerns in the field of Escherichia coli by exploring it in line with topics in Multiple drug resistance which intersect with Transposable element subjects. The research on Transposable element featured in the journal combines topics in other fields like Molecular biology and Catalytic triad.
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 Plasmid (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 Plasmid (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, 7.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 12.50% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 8.33% of all publications and 70.83% 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.
