It’s ridiculous. How can it be reduced to Q2? Comparing with any other domestic journals, it can be considered as Q1, but can it be comparable to MBE? Just a complain.

Fortunately, an article of mine got accepted. The reviewers required the major revision gave 85 comments and we replied one by one, which was equivalent to writing another article. 2019.10.3 Submitted; 2019.11.15 comments received requiring major revisions; 2020.1.17 revision submitted; 2020.2.10 Accepted.

MBE’s impact factor has been rising in recent years. The impact factor has reached 9.872 and directly approached 10 points. As mentioned above, it is because of the two articles, especially the software about MEGA 4. The citation rate is very high (more than 4,000). Another article is Yang's PAML4.

This publication excels at managing its impact factor. However, most of the articles are of low quality and it cannot be considered a top-tier journal in its field

A well-established and prestigious journal in the field of evolutionary biology. Accepted after two major revisions and one minor revision. The efficiency is much better compared to other journals previously submitted to, with a review period of about one month for major revisions and one week for minor revisions, followed by acceptance within 2 days of submission and publication within a week. Overall, although challenging, the results are good, as the comments from reviewers and editors greatly improved the article

The level of this article is average, not up to the standard of top journals. The impact factor is overly high, depending on the nature of published articles, and also influenced by mega support

NAR also publishes articles on database tools and more. However, apart from database tool articles, the research paper quality in NAR is really high! It's just that old-school nucleic acid research is not popular and lacks citations. This makes MBE stand out

The top journals are not included, but they are average. The impact factor is boosted by a few tool articles such as mega. Most of the articles are not of high quality, and do not reach the level of bioinformatics over 5 points

It has become one of the leading journals in the field of genetics and evolutionary biology

This is actually a magazine of very average quality, very average, very average. Those who understand, understand. Someone is trying to compare it to NAR, saying that they are similar. This is simply ridiculous. MBE relies on boosting the citation count and riding on hot topics, while NAR's research papers are of very high quality. They are completely different extremes. Before you come here to criticize, please first properly evaluate the quality of the articles. If NAR didn't publish data-driven articles, its citation count might drop to below 10. However, NAR does not manipulate reviews or engage in clickbait. Even if it only scores six or seven, it is still a top-tier magazine!

Don't touch NAR. The research paper quality of NAR surpasses MBE, NC, and several others by a long shot.

MBE now seems to be a shallow journal! It relies on database manipulation to boost its impact factor, resulting in generally low citation rates per article! It is similar to nucleic acid research in this aspect!

Important documents, if available, can be produced to demonstrate, but can show the emphasis of both sides

In general, experiments are conducted in the order in which the results appear

Is the important literature described in the results or in the introduction?

Would you confirm if the just submitted application is Not Assigned? And the next step will be Under Initial Review?

Under Initial Review. It has been 8 business days and still not sent for external review

(0) Thank | 北风若枫

I was really lucky to get a publication. The reviewers gave me 85 comments, and I carefully replied to each one, which was like writing another article.

real-time impact factor is 9.32, hope to continue top

It takes a total of two and a half months from submission to acceptance, with one and a half months for initial review, one month for minor revisions, 10 days for the second review, and acceptance thereafter
