Academic open-access publisher Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) has announced that two of its journals, Plants and Foods, have been accepted for inclusion in the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) in the Web of Science Core Collection, as well as Current Contents - Agriculture, Biology & Environmental Sciences. Meanwhile, Plants continues to be listed in BIOSIS Previews.
Both journals were established in 2012 and have since made an impact in the scientific community. For example, research published in Plants has been cited more than 880 times in Scopus in 2017 and 2018 to date. Out of four hundred research articles published in Foods since inception, 33 have been cited at least ten times.
Foods and Plants are due to receive first Journal Impact Factors based on Web of Science data in next year's release of the Journal Citation Reports in mid-2019.
