Choose the journal from the same publishing house that you want to submit to, and submit your article according to the submission requirements of that journal

The corresponding author of a SCI journal article does not have to be only one, and there is no fixed standard for the specific number. This is because different SCI journals have different policies regarding the number of corresponding authors. For SCI journals that only accept one corresponding author, if a paper has multiple corresponding authors, the first corresponding author will be automatically selected as the corresponding author. For SCI journals that accept two corresponding authors, two corresponding authors can be listed. Other requirements are the same. In other words, the number of authors listed as corresponding authors should comply with the regulations of the target SCI journal. The first author of a SCI paper is the person who has contributed the most to the experiment and writing of the article, and is the person who is listed first in the author list. In cases of collaboration with multiple individuals, it is common to have co-first authors. As for the number of co-first authors, there is no specific standard, and it largely depends on the workload, length of the paper, publication requirements, and recognition by the institution. Generally, it is common for a SCI paper to have 2-4 first authors

How many corresponding authors are allowed at most? How many first authors are allowed at most?

Experience sharing: The circle of virology field is small, and there are only a few journals, so self-citation is high, which is inevitable. Retrovirology is already a top journal, so there is nothing to fear. As the saying goes, if one's body is straight, he need not fear his shadow being crooked

I'm sorry, I misunderstood the self-citation rate you mentioned as "the number of self-citations divided by the total number of cited articles in the same journal". If calculated in this way, the articles in Nature and Science that cite other articles in Nature and Science will definitely exceed 50%. If calculated as you said, with the denominator being the total number of citations, of course, the denominator for "multidisciplinary journals" will increase and the self-citation rate will decrease. On the other hand, the self-citation rate for "specialized journals" will increase, as after all, the circle mainly cites a few old journals. "It is impossible to accurately determine the number of articles published in Retrovirology in the past few months," you can check on the Retrovirology website to find out how many there are. From January 1, 2014, to August 31, a total of 68 articles were published. To put it bluntly, there are only a few journals in the field of Virology with a score of 5 or above, and everyone knows this without much need for explanation

Where was the data from upstairs sourced from? In 2013, 153 articles were published, and in the first 8 months of 2014, 68 articles were published. It is estimated that around 100 articles will be published in 2014. I wonder if the host has checked the self-citation rate of Nature and Science journals. As long as the citation rate of one's own paper is high, everything else is just clouds

The level is only 4 points, definitely weaker than JV, slightly stronger than Virology!

Experience sharing: There are quite a few articles on HIV, with a certain bias in some areas, but the reviews are quite thorough. Personally, I don't think it's worse than JV, just different focus

Not as good as JVI. Maybe not even as good as VIROLOGY

Experience sharing: IF is a relatively low-quality magazine

IF is increasing continuously now, it has exceeded JVI, and aiming for the top virology journal... But only publishing articles on RETROVIRUSES. Spreading the good news about HIV... Thank you!

IF the water content is relatively high! It is also a journal that continuously improves its IF through reviews and editorials!
