The graph shows the changes in the impact factor of Plant Molecular Biology and its the corresponding percentile for the sake of comparison with the entire literature. Impact Factor is the most common scientometric index, which is defined by the number of citations of papers in two preceding years divided by the number of papers published in those years.
How Influential is Plant Molecular Biology?
Plant Molecular Biology is the 18th out of 252 Botany journals. This means the journal is among the top 8% in the sub-discipline of Botany. This Journal is the 85th out of 543 Genetics journals. This means the journal is among the top 16% in the sub-discipline of Genetics. This Journal is the 135th out of 439 Molecular Biology journals. This Journal is the 700th out of 5,258 Biology journals. This means the journal is among the top 14% in the discipline of Biology. This Journal is the 1017th out of 8,993 Life Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 12% in the science branch of Life Sciences. This Journal is the 1033rd out of 14,350 Health Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 8% in the science branch of Health Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
