Özet

Millions of papers are published in scientific journals every year. For example, 3,194,821 papers were published only in the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science Core Collection Database in 2020. However, the citation rates, h index and Q scores of journals are different from each other. While important scientific results are published in some journals, which are the basis of the literature, other journals may be weak and their citation rates may low. The data used in this study are taken from Clarivate Analytics Web of Science and SCImago SCOPUS databases. In this study, we tried to take attention some data about Q scores of scientific journals. The Q scores of scientific journals have become important in academic appointments in Turkey and also become one of the quality indicators of journals. For this purpose, some data of 30 mycology journals were taken from Clarivate Analytics Web of Science and SCImago SCOPUS databases. Q scores, h index, impact factor scores and some other data of these mycology journals were given in table and analyzed. While there are 8 journals in the Q1 category covered by Web of Science, there are 20 journals in the Q1 category covered SCImago SCOPUS. This is due to the different number of journals and subject categories in both databases. Among 30 mycology journals, Fungal Diversity was the journal with the highest impact factor and Q1 category with 15.39 in the year of 2019. The journal with the highest h index score is Mycologia with a score of 128. In addition, number of papers with Turkey addressed published in 30 mycology journals are given (790 publications, 638 full article) in this study.
