“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, Vegetos is Q3 in Plant Science (#374 of 566 journals).

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).
Vegetos is Q3 in Plant Science (2025 edition, #374 of 566 journals), with SJR 0.261 (Scimago) and an h-index of 29 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, PubMed.

Frequently asked
Is Vegetos a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Vegetos. 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, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Vegetos indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Vegetos appears in: Scopus, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Vegetos?
Papers in Vegetos are cited about 1.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 29. 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 Vegetos (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Vegetos is Q3 in Plant Science (#374 of 566 journals). 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; Vegetos is cited about 1.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 29.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Vegetos?
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 Vegetos. 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 Vegetos open access?
Our index records its access status as "subscription". 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.
How long does Vegetos take to publish a paper?
Submission to first decision for Vegetos takes about 46 days (median) — Publisher-reported. Treat it as indicative rather than a guarantee: editorial times vary by article type, reviewer availability and season, and a self-reported figure is the journal's own. We do not hold a peer-review acceptance rate for Vegetos.
