Publishing repetitive or marginal research lacking innovation.

The review speed is slow, the research methods are not rigorous, and the citation rate is low.

It is reasonable to lower it to the second district.

The actual level is average, and the review process is lengthy.

Frustrating, wishing you get worse and worse.

Looking back, it's really a bitter journey, from submission to acceptance took 10 months.

In my research field, JXB is a well-known old journal with good reputation. Its status in the field is indeed lower than NewP and PP, occasionally on par with PJ and PCE. Calling it a first-tier gatekeeper is reasonable, but demoting it to second-tier is a bit excessive... The Chinese Academy of Sciences' categorization is really like playing a game.

The second district feels very reasonable, much better than Plant Journal

Why was my paper rejected again this year? Is there still hope if I resubmit it?

One third of the articles are review articles, with the rest being other types. The impact factor is raised by reviews. The actual quality is very mediocre

After waiting for over ten days, my status changed to under review

How long does the initial editing review take?

The quality of the journal is fine, but the review process is a bit slow. The first round of review took 4 months, and after revisions were submitted, the second round of review took 8 months. The feedback in the second round was even worse than the first, and I feel that it has delayed too much time. I'm sorry for any inconvenience, but I have decided not to resubmit the revised manuscript. I have lost interest

After my revision, it is under review. Is it sent for review or under peer review?

The assistant editor found a problem with the image during the rework, so we made the changes and resubmitted. Will this have any impact?

It's just slow, my paper was rejected after 4 months of review, now I have been waiting in the queue for 4 months to submit to another journal

It took a super long time for the review, and it took a full 4 months for the feedback to come back. It was rejected, and then it took 4 months before being accepted for PJ

Two months have passed since the submission and it is still under peer review, with no news yet

(0) 讚！ | 界静

The first submission, I don't know how the speed will be, I hope it will be accepted. If rejected, please reject it quickly. I have seen comments below saying it's very slow, with an average waiting period of 6 months. It's terrifying

My 17th day was like this, what happened afterwards?

(0) 讚！ | 北海洪飞

It's been 17 days since I submitted my proposal and it's still being edited over there. What's going on?

(0) 讚！ | 北海洪飞

Same question, has it been submitted for review yet? How long does it take for it to be reviewed?

(0) 讚！ | 北海洪飞

Is the same question, what is the current status after some time?

(0) 讚！ | 北海洪飞

I am about the same as you. I spent 9 months working on it, from start to finish. This magazine absolutely does not rush the submission, so people who are eager to graduate should definitely not submit.
