About the journal
The European Journal of Plant Pathology is an international journal that publishes original research articles dealing with fundamental and applied aspects of plant pathology. Thus, in addition to bacteriological, mycological, and virological topics, entomological, nematological and plant protection studies in general are also included.
Instructions to Authors
Manuscripts submitted for publication and communications concerning editorial matters should be sent to:
Editorial Office
European Journal of Plant Pathology
P.O. Box 990
3300 AZ Dordrecht
The Netherlands
No page charges are applicable, but prospective authors should condense their text as much as possible.
The European Journal of Plant Pathology welcomes research papers, mini review papers and short communications. Fifty offprints will be supplied free of charge.
Research papers describing original research should address biological problems. They should contain a novel and well formulated hypothesis, a sound experimental approach, results that confirm or reject the hypothesis and should offer novel insight into the existing body of knowledge. Research papers should not exceed twenty pages of printed text, including tables, figures and references (one page of printed text = approximately 600 words).
The Short communication format is intended for presentation of important observations that can be clearly described in an abbreviated format. For example, molecular data useful for typing pathogens or the first report of a disease would be suitable for this section. Short descriptions of genes isolated from pathogens and pest organisms, and of plant genes with a putative function in plant-pathogen interactions can also be presented in the Short communication format. Short communications should contain firm data and will be refereed. A short communication should have an abstract and should not exceed four printed pages in total. There are no subheadings and a description of Materials and methods should be integrated in the text.
Authors who wish to submit a Mini review should first contact the Editorial Office or the Editor-in-Chief, since only Mini reviews on topical issues will be considered for publication. Mini reviews should not exceed 12 pages of printed text, including Tables, Figures, and References.
Papers already published or in press elsewhere will not be accepted. If any part of the subject matter or experiments included in a manuscript submitted to the journal has been the subject of any prior publication, this prior publication must be identified. Papers of restricted local importance will not be accepted.
The journal requests the submission of manuscripts on diskette (see ¡®Preparing Text on Diskettes¡® below). Submitting your text on diskette should expedite publication.
Manuscripts should be written in standard English. Four copies should be submitted (the original manuscript plus three copies, each including all Tables, Figures and References). Four sets of original halftones are required. The author should retain a complete copy of the manuscript. Manuscripts should be typed clearly, double-spaced throughout on one side of A4 paper with margins of 3--5 cm. All pages (including the Tables, Figures, Legends and References) should be numbered consecutively. As a guide for acceptable style please consult recent issues of the journal and the Council of Biology Style Manual, 6th edition (1987), available from the American Institute of Biological Sciences, 9650 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20814, USA. Failure to comply with these instructions will delay consideration of the manuscript.
The manuscript should be arranged in the following order:
Title page (page 1)
the title should be brief but informative.
the Author¡®s full name (if more than one, use ¡¯and¡® before the last name and indicate to whom correspondence should be addressed).
Affiliation(s)/Address(es) should be complete, and should include a fax number and E-mail address forcorrespondence.
Key words/Abstract/Abbreviations (page 2)
Key words (a maximum of 6, in alphabetical order, suitable for indexing). Key words should differ from words mentioned in the title.
Abstract (brief and informative, not to exceed 250 words). No abbreviations should be used in the abstract.
Abbreviations (arranged alphabetically; only those which are not familiar and/or commonly used).
Main text
The text must be developed under the following headings:
Introduction
Materials and methods
Results
Discussion
The relative importance of headings and subheadings should be clear. The approximate location of Figures and Tables should be indicated in the margin.
New paragraphs should be indicated by clear indentations.
Footnotes should be avoided if possible.
After the main text
Acknowledgements (also grants, support, etc., if any) should follow the text and precede the references.
References
Literature references should be listed alphabetically, typed double-spaced, and in the text referred to by author name and year of publication enclosed in brackets, e.g. (Smith, 1990).
Citations of personal communications and unpublished data should be avoided unless necessary. Such citations should in text appear only as: (D. Wilman, Institute, Country, pers. comm.), (C.S. Andrew, Institute, Country, unpubl.), and not in the reference list.
The titles of periodicals should be given in full.
References should contain: author(s) name(s) followed by author(s) initials, year, title of article (only first word and proper nouns capitalized), journal (not underlined), volume number and inclusive page numbers. Books must include the location and name of the publisher.
Examples:
Periodicals
van Gijsegem F, Somssich IE and Scheel D (1995) Activation of defense-related genes in parsley leaves by infection with Erwinia chrysanthemi. European Journal of Plant Pathology 101: 549-559
Books (edited by someone other than author of article)
Smith EL, Austen BM, Blumenthal KM and Nyc JF (1975) Glutamate dehydrogenases. In: Boyer PD (ed.) The Enzymes. Vol.11 (pp. 293-367) Academic Press, New York
Books (monographs)
Hicks CR (1973) Fundamental Concepts in the Design of Experiments. Holt, Rinehard and Winston, New York
Tables
Each Table should be typed on a separate page.
Tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals, followed by the title. Horizontal rules should be indicated; vertical rules should not be used. Table footnotes should be marked with superscript numbers.
Each Table must be mentioned in the text.
Tables may be edited by the publisher to permit more compact typesetting.
Do not use abbreviations in the title.
Figures
Each Figure must be mentioned in the text.
Line drawings must be in black ink on white paper or blue graph paper, and should not contain shading. Extremely small type should be avoided, since Figures are often reduced in size.
Halftone reproductions must be clear well-contrasted glossy prints trimmed at right angles.
Original halftones must be supplied with each copy of the manuscript.
Colour plates will be inserted only at the author¡®s expense. Quotes will be provided for each individual case. Colour transparencies (diapositives) give better colour plates than do photographs.
Figures should be identified by Arabic numbers.
Where multi-part Figures are used, each part should be clearly identified in the legend, preferably with lower case letters.
The top of the Figure should be indicated on the back. Each Figure should be identified by lightly writing the author¡®s name and Figure number on the back.
Do not give magnification or scales in the Figure legends: instead draw bar scales directly on the Figures.
Do not use abbreviations in the Figure legends.
Virus nomenclature
ICTV approved guidelines should be used. ICTV uses italics for virus names when these are approved Species in the Genus. Examples from the potyviridae: Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) as a Species in the Genus. Synonyms for Papaya ringspot virus, such as Watermelon mosaic virus 1 are not written in italics. Tentative Species in the Genus, i.e. Alstromeria streak virus (AlStV) are also not in italic.
Abbreviations and units
SI units should be used, e.g: mg, g, km, m, cm, mm, ppm, cpm, Ci(Curie), l(litre), ml, s(second), min(minute), h(hour), mol, m-3 , kg per ha or kg ha-1. The minus index form is always to be used in Tables.
Use mgl-1, not mg/l.
If a non-standard abbreviation is to be used extensively, it should be defined in full on page 2 and follow the abstract.
The author will be sent an offprint order form with the proofs, which should be returned to the Publisher without delay. If there are typesetting problems, e.g. misplaced figures or tables, it is the responsibility of the author to contact the Publisher urgently by fax (number 31-78-6392236). Fifty offprints will be supplied free of charge.
Manuscript on Diskette
Format
We strongly prefer manuscripts typed on IBM-compatible computers, with operating system MS DOS (versions 3.2 or higher), and wordprocessing package WordPerfect (4.2 or higher).
We also accept files in most other wordprocessing packages, that run under MS DOS, and Apple Macintosh diskettes.
If this combination is not available to you, please contact us as soon as possible.
If you work with the Graphical User Interface Windows or on a Macintosh computer, use only regular fonts like Courier, Times, Helvetica or standard Symbol.
Do¡®s
File. Identify your file clearly with a sensible name. Make absolutely sure that you send us your final version, and that the printout is identical to what you have saved on the diskette.
Consistency. Be absolutely consistent and check the use of punctuation, abbreviations, capitals and lower case in headings, spelling, etc. If possible, use the spelling checker on your computer.
Special characters. If the ASCII character set or the character set(s) of your wordprocessing package does not contain the special characters you need, key in a code between angle brackets,
, and use this each and every time you want the character to appear. Make the code self-explanatory. Note: Always supply us with a list of the codes that you have used!
Headings. Start headings etc. flush left, with two space lines above (i.e. three Hard Returns) and one space line below (two Hard Returns). Distinguish different levels of headings and be consistent.
Paragraphs. Indent all paragraphs with a [TAB] code, and separate them from one another with one Hard Return.
Block quotations should be indented with an [Indent] code and should have one space line (i.e. two Hard Returns) above and below.
Figures should be submitted in camera-ready form. The position of the figure in the text should be indicated in the margins of the hard copy. Figure legends should be placed at the end of your file.
Tables. We prefer tables to be submitted in camera-ready form. If you also put your tables on diskette, please separate columns with [TAB] codes (not with spaces) and, consequently, adjust the tabular stops to position the columns.
Equations. One-line equations without fractions can be typeset from the diskette when they are keyed in as plain text. Other equations can not be used from the diskette: they will be typeset manually from the hard copy.
References. Strictly follow the Instructions for Authors.
Don¡®ts
Hyphenation. Do not hyphenate words at the end of a line. Use only one hyphen for words such as ¡¯¡¯well-being¡®¡®, and ¡¯¡¯re-do¡®¡® and use two hyphens for sequences of dates and years such as ¡¯¡¯conference dates are 12-15 September, 1992¡®¡®, ¡¯¡¯age groups between 20-30 years are welcome¡®¡®, and page number indications in References, e.g. ¡¯¡¯pp. 240-243¡®¡®.
Hard Returns. Do not use Hard Returns except when absolutely necessary, such as at the end of paragraphs, headings, etc. Otherwise, let the word wrap feature of your wordprocessor do this work for you.
TAB feature and Spacebar. If you need more than one space between two items, e.g. when you write in columns, always use the [TAB] feature of your wordprocessing package. Use the spacebar only for separating words from one another. Do not use the spacebar to format tables, for centering or laying out texts, or for any othcr form of line or page formatting.
Delivering your article
Always supply us with both the hard-copy (printout) version of your final text and the diskette.
Label your diskette properly, giving exact details of operating system and software used.
Always retain a backup copy of your diskette.
