Developing world-class scientific journals to serve the strategy of building a strong country in science and technology:Taking Molecular Plant as an example
[Purposes]The construction of a great power in science and technology cannot be achieved without the support of world-class scientific journals.By analyzing and summarizing the experience of launching the world-class scientific journal,Molecular Plant,this paper aims to explore possible ways and measures for English scientific journals to enhance their international influence.[Methods]Taking Molecular Plant as an example,this paper analyzed the challenges encountered during its journey from inception to becoming a top journal in the field of plant science,as well as the corresponding measures employed by Molecular Plant to conquer these challenges,so as to propose a development model that can be used as a reference for other English language scientific journals in China.[Findings]Molecular Plant implements unique strategies and effective measures including building a dedicated scientific editorial team,ensuring manuscript quality control,fostering international collaboration in publishing,organizing branded academic activities,and cultivating a research ecosystem around the journal.These initiatives have rapidly enhanced the international influence of Molecular Plant and enable it to become a world-class scientific journal and top journal in the field.[Conclusions]The internationalization strategy,measures,and publication practice adopted by Molecular Plant represent significant endeavors towards building world-class scientific journals in China.These efforts have important reference significance for other English scientific journals in China seeking to explore effective development pathways tailored to their own growth.
