GMR Genetics and Molecular Research

Genetics and Molecular Research (GMR) is a peer-reviewed, all-electronic journal available at no charge to readers via the website - www.geneticsmr.com. The overall aim of GMR is to publish original, outstanding research papers in the areas of Genetics, Molecular Biology, Evolution and Bioinformatics. GMR was launched to facilitate the process of publication and to make publications in these fields readily available to the scientific community. The editorial staff at GMR maintains the same structure and procedures as the print journals that it previously managed. Furthermore, the lead time to publication is considerably reduced. After extensive consultation with scientists, financing institutions and indexing agencies, we decided that there was a need for a high-quality electronic journal accessible at no charge to anyone, anywhere, at anytime. GMR is indexed in more than 70 databases, including ISI, PubMed, Index Medicus and Medline. In 2011, the journal received an impact factor of 1.013 from JCR, an impressive number for a new journal whose indexing was only considered since 2008. Founded in 2002, Genetics and Molecular Research commemorates the publication of more than 1200 articles and the increase in the submission of papers from abroad. With free access, the countries that access the journal's website and download articles the most are China, United States, India, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Mexico, United Kingdom, Turkey and Germany.
