STM publisher Elsevier and the American Dairy Science Association (ADSA) have announced the winners of the third annual Journal of Dairy Science (JDS) Most-Cited Awards.
Papers published in JDS throughout 2010 were eligible and citations from date of publication until April 15, 2013, were taken into consideration. Awards are conferred in each of the four sections comprising the journal's content: Dairy Foods; Physiology and Management; Nutrition, Feeding and Calves; and Genetics and Breeding.
The number of citations a published study receives is an indicator of its importance to its research community. The Journal of Dairy Science Most-Cited Awards program formally recognises contributors to JDS whose work is significantly impacting research and the dairy industry.
Journal of Dairy Science (JDS), the official journal of the American Dairy Science Association, is co-published by Elsevier and the Federation of Animal Science Societies for the American Dairy Science Association. JDS readers represent education, industry, and government agencies in more than 70 countries with interests in biochemistry, breeding, economics, engineering, environment, food science, genetics, microbiology, nutrition, pathology, physiology, processing, public health, quality assurance, and sanitation.
