Plant, Soil and Environment journal included in prestigious databases of the Web of Science

We are pleased to announce that the scientific journal Plant, Soil and Environment (PSE), published by the Czech Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), has successfully passed the evaluation process for inclusion in the specialized collections of Clarivate's Web of Science database.

Based on the positive result of the evaluation, the journal will now be indexed in the following databases:
BIOSIS Citation Index
BIOSIS Previews
Biological Abstracts
All newly published articles from the PSE journal will now be included in these databases.

The journal Plant, Soil and Environment is a prestigious journal of ČAZV and has excellent results in the field of citation metrics - it is ranked in the Q1 category Agronomy in the Core Collection Web of Science according to the impact factor (IF) and also in the Q2 category Agronomy according to the Article Influence Score (AIS).
The journal's new inclusion in other major databases, such as Web of Science, will be another important step in increasing its international visibility and confirming its scientific quality.

Zpráva z workshopu „Piš a publikuj aneb Jak připravit rukopis pro vědecký časopis“

Dne 14. května 2025 se od 13:00 hodin konal online formou další z pravidelných workshopů „Piš a publikuj aneb Jak připravit rukopis pro vědecký časopis“, který pořádala Česká akademie zemědělských věd. Workshop byl určen pro začínající i zkušenější autory vědeckých článků. Cílem workshopu bylo informovat začínající i zkušené autory vědeckých článků o jednotlivých časopisech vydávaných ČAZV, o důležitých aspektech přípravy rukopisu před zasláním do redakce, o podmínkách a průběhu recenzního řízení a také o používaném redakčním systému. V neposlední řadě se také workshop zaměřil na etiku a citační normu. V rámci workshopu byl rovněž prostor na dotazy a diskuze.
