The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.2 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.4 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00066 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.34 SJR: 0.274 SNIP: 0.41 CiteScore™:: 2.8 H-Index: 37

ABSTRACT

The ability of exopolysaccharides produced by medicinal mushroom Tremella mesenterica to influence the mechanisms of plant resistance to viruses has been studied. It was established that neutral polysaccharides (100−1000 μg/mL) can inhibit the formation of local lesions induced by the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) (86%−96%) in Nicotiana tabacum and Datura stramonium plants. Acid water-soluble glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) in a concentration of 1000−2500 μg/mL activates the mechanisms of virus localization and also the acquired virus resistance (AVR) in plants supersensitive to TMV de novo. This is confirmed by the fact that actinomycin D (10−20 μg/mL), an inhibitor of DNA-dependent RNA-polymerase, partially inhibits the development of AVR. The possibility of using the natural product GXM as an instrument to study the mechanism of AVR as a method to decrease viral infection lesions in plants is under discussion.
