Abstract

An analysis of 90958 papers published by Indian scientists and indexed by Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-E) during 2010-2011 indicates that academic institutions produced the highest number of papers contributing about 43% of the output. The highest number of papers was published in the discipline of chemical sciences. Highest impact as judged by the values of CPP and RCI was also made by chemical sciences. About 83% papers were published in journals originating froum outse India. US journals were the most preferred choice for publishing papers. About half of the papers were published in medium impact factor journals and 66% papers were cited one or more times. Indian Institute of Science (Bangalore) published the highest number of papers; and the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (Bangalore) made the highest impact.

Abstract

An analysis of 2074 papers published on different aspects of Japanese Encephalitis (JE) during 1991 to 2010 and indexed by Science Citation Index-Expanded indicates that the output increased many folds since 1991 except for a significant dip in 2005. These papers were scattered in 501 journal titles, which originated from 29 different countries. Total output came from 62 countries of which 14 countries contributed 90% of the total output. The highest number of publications came from USA, followed by India. The publication activity increased significantly in China, South Korea, France, Austria, Singapore, Germany and decreased for Japan in the second block. Data indicates that about 87% of the total output is concentrated among 15 sub-disciplines and the remaining in other 53 sub-disciplines. Highest output (18%) is in the sub-discipline of virology. Among the prolific institutions, the publication output of institutions from the USA and Taiwan had higher impact. Citation per Paper (CPP) and Relative Citation Impact (RCI) were more than average for USA. All the Indian institutes listed under prolific institutions had made only a low impact.

Abstract

Agriculture research is a continuous process and requires updated inflow of concord knowledge, which is generally managed through libraries in research institutions. The inflow of knowledge can be achieved through different types of sources such as books, journals, research reviews, electronic media etc. However, most of them involve cost and may not be affordable by every one. But the information on online journals free of cost has fulfilled the dream of those researchers who were not able to afford subscription to these journals. There is need to enlist such journals so that the information with respect to such journals is easily available to researchers. This paper presents the importance of free e-journals available in the field of agriculture and also consolidate the list of 202 e-journals with their website address.

Abstract

Analyses 743 research papers comprising 435 main articles and 308 short communications published (Total 743) in nine volumes 10 to 18, (1993 - 2001) in Journal of Oilseed Research (JOR), based on earlier study covering Vol.1-9 (1984 to 1992) comprising 241 Main Articles and 257 Short communications (Total 498 papers). The study gives status of oilseed research and importance of oilseeds in India. Also gives account of JOR, objectives and methodology of this study. Analyses papers into year wise distribution, length of articles, use of tables, graphs diagrams. Finds authorship pattern and calculates collaboration coefficients. Also finds out profilic contributors, location of papers, subject wise distribution and crop wise distribution. The paper analyses in details citations given in these articles in various tables viz number of citations per article and types of documents used for citations. Paper also rankes periodicals and apply Brodford Law.

Abstract

The study examines the pattern of growth of papers published by CSIR-Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology (IHBT) during 1990-2019; identifies most prolific authors and their citation impact, communication pattern of scientists in terms of journal publishing country and impact factor of these journals as well as the pattern of domestic and international collaboration. Analysis of data indicates a consistent growth of output during the study period except a decline in 2019-2020. Publications appeared in journals published from the advanced countries of the West and more than half of the papers were published in medium, high and very high impact factor journals. The output is highly scattered in terms of journal publication as one-third of the papers were published in 28 journals. Only about 8% papers remained uncited and rest were cited one or more times. Of the 20 highly cited papers, six women scientists acted as first author. The study found that more than half of the papers were published in domestic and international collaboration. USA was the most collaborating country and academic institutions were found to be most domestic collaborating institutions in India as well as abroad. Among all the Indian institutions, Guru Nanak Dev University (Amritsar) was most collaborating domestic institution and University of Vienna, Austria from abroad.
