Abstract

Next-generation sequencing has fueled significant advancement in plant breeding tools, such as genome-wide association studies and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis. In this dynamic landscape, plant databases housing SNP markers have evolved into hubs facilitating breeding initiatives and genomic research. PrunusMap, accessible at https://prunusmap.eead.csic.es is an open-source Web application tailored for the Prunus community. Featuring a user-friendly interface, PrunusMap empowers users to seamlessly align and locate markers across multiple genome versions of Prunus species and cultivars, supporting different queries and formats. Beyond locating marker positions, it provides a comprehensive list of annotated nearby genes and proteins. This streamlined process, driven by four intuitive features 'Find markers', 'Align sequences', 'Align proteins', and 'Locate by position', significantly reduces workload and boosts efficiency, particularly for users with limited bioinformatics expertise. Moreover, PrunusMap's versatility is underscored by its commitment to incorporate additional Prunus genome sequences, annotations, and markers upon user request.

Quality index

Bibliometric impact. Analysis of the contribution and dissemination channel

The work has been published in the journal Horticulture Research due to its progression and the good impact it has achieved in recent years, according to the agency WoS (JCR), it has become a reference in its field. In the year of publication of the work, 2025, it was in position 11/191, thus managing to position itself as a Q1 (Primer Cuartil), in the category Genetics & Heredity. Notably, the journal is positioned above the 90th percentile.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-08-06:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 4.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 7 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 5.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 6 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
  • Assignment of a Handle/URN as an identifier within the deposit in the Institutional Repository: http://hdl.handle.net/10532/7508
