1Journal Impact Factors (JIF) are 2-year citation rates from Scimago, 2019. Over the past decade in particular, with the advent of many new on-line journals, the JIF for many journals has declined markedly eg. J Bacteriol and J Gen. Microbiol (later Microbiol) were the two top microbiology journals when I began my publishing career.
