Abstract
ABSTRACT Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) is supposed to be a permanent identifier for researchers. Despite this, the ORCID registry or database carries entries of “researchers” that are evidently not as claimed, dummy accounts, or “ghost” accounts. As part of an ongoing project to assess the oddities in, and reliability of, ORCID, this letter records the existence of 29 cases of “researchers” with the names (first or family) of vegetables. Editors are cautioned to verify ORCID accounts associated with submitted papers to ensure their validity.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Vegetable Science features innovative articles on all aspects of vegetable production, including growth regulation, pest management, sustainable production, harvesting, handling, storage, shipping, and final consumption. Researchers, practitioners, and academics present current findings on new crops and protected culture as well as traditional crops, examine marketing trends in the commercial vegetable industry, and address vital issues of concern to breeders, production managers, and processors working in all continents where vegetables are grown.
