To help researchers and publishers learn
more about open access (OA) journals, the team of Open Access Library released
the latest version of rankings for open access journals in August 2017. The basic benchmark used
in the OA journals rankings is the h5-index from Google Scholar Metrics (June
2017). We can view a journal’s ranking by selecting proper research keywords or
typing the title/specific research area in the search box directly.
The h5-index for the journal American Journal of Plant Sciences published by SCIRP is
22, ranked 7th in the top open access journals matching Plant Science.
