Abstract

Study attempted to identify the authorship trend and collaborative research in Genetics and Plant Breeding, based on the data collected from the Indian Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding published during 1998-2002. The study reveals that two authors papers are maximum 215 (44.24%). The degree of collaboration in research is 0.87 in genetics and plant breeding as a whole and ranged between 0.86 to 0.89 during 1998-2002. The contribution from research institutions and laboratories i.e., 216 (44.08%) is vividly ahead of other segments such as universities and colleges. 475 articles contributed by the Indian authors and a significant percent i.e., 107 (22.49%) is reported from Delhi State.

Abstract

The present study examines the degeneration of web citations in scholarly journals of Library and Information Science, and Communication and Media Studies. The journals were selected based on their high impact factor published between 2008 and 2017. A PHP script was used to crawl the Uniform Resource Locators collected from the references. A total of 8,767 articles were downloaded and 3,97,140 references were extracted. A total of 71,289 URLs were checked for their availability. Further, the characteristic features of URL like file extension, path depth, character length and the toplevel domain were determined. The findings indicated that more number of URLs in LIS journal articles decayed than in Communication and Media Studies journal articles. The majority of errors in both the disciplines were HTTP 404 error code (Not found error). The findings of the study imply that authors, publishers and editorial staff need to ensure the availability of web resources before citing them.
