Are you referring to TBTOOLS?

If you don't like it, you don't have to vote. Why insult the chef after being fed?

Journals with a high impact factor that are recognized by the Chinese people are easy to submit and publish in. The efficiency of the editorial department is very high, and responses are quick! I recommend everyone to support them more!

The driver of bad money driving out good money. It's embarrassing to compare it to a plant cell. It's so much worse than a plant cell, by several streets.

If we can't do it, we can actually choose not to do it. If we don't do it, we won't advocate for the elimination of the bad practices in the country and let the bad drive out the good.

Don't belittle others like this. Some people are volunteering to lead large groups for bioinformatics training for freshmen and students from major universities. Although there were paid online courses before, most of the group information is free. It's convenient for those who use it, and they don't have to code. With such a strong foundation of domestic users, the IF is naturally high

What should we do then?

The research article is all Chinese. Most of the spotlights are done by foreigners. They have put in a lot of effort to reduce the proportion of Chinese publications. Quite funny

Recommend some classic botanical conservation journals in the field of botany, thank you

The quality of the article is average, with very poor reputation. Even if it can score five points in a botany journal overseas, MP will not be considered

@NatPlants, please don't embarrass yourself. MP is a top-tier publication, and so is Horticulture Research, probably even better than MP. One is the premium version of a journal, and the other is the basic version

Chinese self-entertainment magazine, Horti Res is much more reputable than MP

After looking at the articles from 2022 and 2023, the number of citations is quite good. However, upon closer inspection, over eighty percent of the citations are from Chinese authors. This is quite strange. Why are only Chinese authors citing the articles and not foreigners? It seems abnormal for a reputable journal to have this kind of phenomenon. Could the rumors be true?

TBtools, which is often criticized by bioinformatics, has contributed over 6000 citations to MP in the past two years. Without TBtools, the impact factor of MP would probably drop to zero. 

MP might as well switch to being a bioinformatics tools journal. Then the impact factor could increase to 1000

Just because it's convenient, it can be published in MP? Don't look at innovation? Don't look at scientific significance?

Hahaha, hitting the nail on the head

The level of articles in MP cannot be said to be bad, but it definitely does not look like a top journal. It seems to have a lot of data at first glance, but upon closer inspection, there are either logical bugs or deliberate attempts to exaggerate innovation, or simply lack of innovation. Many things reported in foreign journals over a decade ago can still be published in MP. The lower limit is relatively low.

Of course, those who are able to publish in top international journals would not even consider MP, as everyone knows that this journal has a very poor reputation

When it comes to usefulness, there are so many useful tools out there, so why bother getting excited? Anything without much innovation can be submitted to the MP. Most articles on MP are junk. It's all about exchanging benefits

But you can't deny that tbtools is really useful, otherwise there wouldn't be so many references. The impact factor of this journal is a bit inflated, but the quality of papers in the field of botany is still good

The tool article, rejected by bioinformatics, was finally published in MP, with extremely negative reviews. It was this article that propelled MP's impact factor through the roof. Citation counts are no longer necessary for the sake of impact factor. Whether the article is innovative or not is irrelevant. It is estimated that 80% of the impact factor is due to inflated numbers. Remove the review letter, remove the mutual citations, and the score cannot go any higher

On the one hand, I can't hit my own shots, and on the other hand, I mock the magazine's content. Who really has the problem?

It just looks like good quality, but if you carefully read the content, you will realize that most of it is nonsense, let alone innovation. There is a reason why foreigners don't invest.

The impact factor is indeed a bit inflated, but the quality of the articles in the field of botany is still good.
