Overview

Top Research Topics at Vegetos?

The scientific interests tackled in the journal are Horticulture, Veterinary medicine, Botany, Forensic science and Agronomy. It features Horticulture research that overlaps with concepts in Plant physiology. The studies in Veterinary medicine featured incorporate elements of Crop and Genotype.

Most of the works presented in Vegetos deals with Genotype but it intersects with the subject of Genetic diversity. The studies on Forensic science discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Insomnia and Germplasm. The Shoot works featured in Vegetos incorporate elements from Explant culture, Murashige and Skoog medium and Micropropagation.

Discussions in it are anchored in the subject of Explant culture and the similar topic of Callus. Research in Non-invasive ventilation discussed is concerned with the study of Agriculture as a whole.

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 2021 edition, 15.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 31.09% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.61% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 22.69% of all publications and 33.61% 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.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

For those interested in expanding their expertise beyond traditional Plant Science and Agronomy, there are various online degree options that can complement a career in agricultural research or environmental science. For example, exploring accelerated healthcare programs like the rn to np bridge program can provide pathways into fields that include agricultural health and wellness.

Similarly, direct entry options such as direct entry msn programs offer a streamlined approach for those without a nursing background, which can be valuable for professionals looking to merge plant science with functional healthcare approaches in community settings.

When choosing programs, it’s essential to compare institutions to find the best fit. For example, understanding the differences through a comparison like wgu vs chamberlain can help students decide which online degree aligns with their career goals and learning style.

Additionally, specialized pathways such as functional medicine np programs provide opportunities to integrate plant-based nutrition and natural health practices into patient care, opening diverse career options rooted in both agronomy and health sciences.
