Journal Indexing
Maximizing the visibility and discoverability of plant genetics and crop research.
Indexing and Abstracting
The Journal of Plant Genetics and Crop Research is committed to ensuring your research reaches the widest possible audience through comprehensive indexing and distribution partnerships.
Journal indexing significantly impacts the visibility and credibility of published research. Indexed articles appear in major academic databases, enabling researchers worldwide to discover your work through standard literature searches. Strong indexing presence increases citation potential and demonstrates journal quality to prospective authors and readers.
JGRC actively pursues indexing relationships with leading databases relevant to plant genetics, agricultural sciences, and crop improvement research to maximize exposure for our authors' contributions.
Google Scholar
Full indexing with citation tracking and author profile integration for published articles.
Crossref
DOI registration and metadata distribution to major academic systems worldwide.
ORCID
Author identifier integration connecting publications to researcher profiles.
Academic Databases
Metadata submitted to relevant agricultural and biological science databases.
DOI Assignment: Every published article receives a unique Digital Object Identifier (DOI) ensuring permanent, citable access regardless of future URL changes.
- Enhanced Discoverability: Researchers find your work through standard database searches
- Citation Tracking: Indexed articles are tracked by citation services measuring research impact
- Permanent Access: DOI registration ensures long-term accessibility and citability
- Institutional Recognition: Indexed journals often meet institutional publishing requirements
- Global Reach: Distribution to international databases expands geographic audience
We continuously work to expand our indexing presence. Applications and evaluations are ongoing with additional major databases including Scopus, Web of Science, and specialized agricultural indexes. Indexing decisions depend on journal maturation, publication consistency, and editorial standards—all areas where JGRC demonstrates strong commitment.
Authors contribute to indexing success by submitting quality research, completing thorough peer review, and citing JGRC articles appropriately in their future work.
High-quality metadata ensures accurate indexing and retrieval. JGRC maintains rigorous metadata standards including:
- Complete author information with ORCID identifiers when available
- Accurate abstracts, keywords, and subject classifications
- Properly formatted references with DOIs for cross-linking
- Structured XML following industry standards for database ingestion
Beyond traditional database indexing, JGRC implements comprehensive search engine optimization to enhance article discoverability. Published articles are structured with optimized metadata, semantic markup, and accessibility features that improve ranking in general web searches.
Authors benefit from enhanced visibility as practitioners, policymakers, and researchers outside traditional academic channels discover their work through web search engines.
