“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

Scimago Journal Rank 2025
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy is Q3 in all 2 of its subject categories.
| Subject category | Quartile | Rank in category |
|---|---|---|
| Plant Science | Q3 | #308 of 566 |
| Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics | Q3 | #456 of 752 |
- Cites per document (2 years, Scopus)
- 1.03
- Documents indexed in 2025 (Scopus)
- 36
OpenAlex counts about 0.6 citations per paper over two years; Scopus, through Scimago, counts 1.03 per document. The two databases index different journals, documents and citations, so the figures differ. Neither is a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor.
The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).
Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy is Q3 in all 2 of its Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Plant Science: Q3, #308 of 566), with SJR 0.33 (Scimago) and an h-index of 20 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science.

Frequently asked
Is Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, which is a positive signal.
Is Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy appears in: Scopus, Web of Science. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy?
Papers in Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy are cited about 0.6 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 20. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy is Q3 in all 2 of its subject categories. By category: Plant Science: Q3, #308 of 566; Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics: Q3, #456 of 752. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy is cited about 0.6 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 20.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q3, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
