Instructions to Authors

 

The aim of The Plant Journal is to publish novel and exciting science which addresses fundamental questions in plant biology.

For publication in The Plant Journal, the research must provide a highly significant new contribution to our understanding of plants and be of general interest to the plant science community.

All areas of plant biology are welcome in the journal and the experimental approaches used can be wide-ranging.

With the completion of genome sequencing programmes, and availability of new technologies and bioinformatics, the combined powers of genetics, biochemistry and cell biology are leading to the very rapid production of new information.  The Plant Journal welcomes the results of these functional genomics programmes, so long as the scientific question rather than technology is driving the experimental research.

Two categories of manuscript can be submitted: primary research articles and technical advances.  Submissions for the technical advance section should describe new methods that substantively advance an area of plant biology.  Manuscripts that describe very large incremental advances in the uses of a current technology will also be considered, but variations on existing methods, or vectors, will not be.  Manuscripts that describe results already published but extended to another species will not be considered unless there are substantive and demonstrable differences between the two sets of data.

If authors have any concerns whether their manuscript comes within the scope of The Plant Journal, they should e-mail a summary highlighting the novelty and significance of the study to the Editorial Office (tpj-general@york.ac.uk), for advice prior to full submission.

Authors are welcome to submit Supplementary Material, such as data sets or additional figures or tables, that will not be published in the print edition of the journal, but which will be viewable via the online edition.

Authors including microarray analysis should refer to the MIAME recommendations for guidance in preparing their manuscripts.


Submission of Manuscripts

The Plant Journal's online submission site can be found at http://tpj.manuscriptcentral.com. Submission online enables the quickest possible review and allows online manuscript tracking. Please note that manuscript submission online must be done from the Corresponding Author's TPJ Manuscript Central account.

For reviewing purposes, The Plant Journal requires that authors submit their manuscript as one complete file comprising a title page, abstract, text, references, tables, figure legends and figures. For simplicity, this can be a PDF file. Authors can also submit a Word document (.doc), RTF (.rtf) or PS (.ps) file. This file will be automatically converted to a PDF document on upload and will be used for the review process. Manuscripts should be formatted as described in The Plant Journal's Instructions for Authors.

When preparing your file, please use only standard fonts such as Times, Times New Roman or Arial for text, and Symbol font for Greek letters, to avoid inadvertent character substitutions. In particular, please do not use Japanese or other Asian fonts.

When inserting figures into your text document, make sure that they are clear and easily readable. Characters that are not easily readable in your text document will most likely be illegible when converted into the PDF file. Check your proof carefully before final submission, both for readability and to ensure that it includes everything it should.

Extra files for Supplementary Material or other supporting documents may also be uploaded separately. For any supporting documents, please indicate clearly what the document is, as well as its format. Related manuscripts in press or submitted elsewhere should be included.

For reference purposes, original image files such as .gif, .jpg, and .tif may also be uploaded, but these files will not routinely be sent to reviewers. Images will be converted to small .jpg files on upload, but the original files that you upload can still be accessed by the Editorial Office and can be used if required in the review process. 

Although you may upload other file types such as LaTeX files or QuickTime movies, Manuscript Central will not convert these into PDF files. The Editors and reviewers will only be able to view these unconverted files if they have the appropriate software on their computers. Any author wishing to submit such files should contact the Editorial Office (tpj-submissions@york.ac.uk) before doing so.

Authors should select an Editor and provide names of potential reviewers for their manuscript. Submission to the Editor closest to the field of interest will speed reviewing. Suggested reviewers should not have been advisors, advisees, co-authors or collaborators within the past 3 years.

If you have any problems during submission, please contact the Submissions Manager, Sarah Threapleton at tpj-submissions@york.ac.uk (tel: +44-1904-434594).

Please note that following acceptance of your manuscript for publication in The Plant Journal, you will be required to supply your manuscript and figures on disk or CD (for disk instructions see Disk submission of manuscripts below).

All submissions will be considered by the Editorial Board to determine whether they lie within the scope of the journal. Those that do will be sent out for full review. Those that do not will be returned to the authors quickly so that resubmission elsewhere will not be unduly delayed. 

Revised manuscripts must be received by the Editorial Office within 2 months of authors being notified of conditional acceptance pending satisfactory revision.  Full instructions for submission of revised manuscripts can be found below in "Submission of Revised Manuscripts".  Authors resubmitting manuscripts should follow the same procedures as for submission of new manuscripts.  If accepted, papers become the copyright of the journal.  No page or handling charges will be levied.

All questions about the status of manuscripts under review should be directed to the Editorial Office, and not to the Editor. Please use the e-mail address Tpj-manuscripts@york.ac.uk or phone number +44 1904 434337 for such enquiries.

Correspondence relating to all other editorial matters should be directed to:

Papers are accepted on the understanding that no substantial part has been, or will be, published elsewhere.  Publication of a paper in The Plant Journal explicitly requires that authors will provide, for non-profit research, all the biological and chemical materials not commercially available that are used for the experiments reported.  To ensure complete transparency of this requirement, The Plant Journal requires authors to state that these materials will be available on request.  Clearly, the request must be reasonable, particularly when these materials have required substantial effort for their production.  Authors must state at the time of manuscript submission, both in their cover letter and in the Experimental Procedures, any restrictions that will affect the sharing of materials and plant lines.  The reviewers will be asked to determine the acceptability of these restrictions for publication.

Submission of a manuscript to The Plant Journal implies that all persons listed as authors qualify for authorship, and all those who qualify are listed.  Each author should have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for the content, and each author must have approved the final version of the submitted manuscript.

Presentation of Manuscripts

Only manuscripts in English will be published. Spelling should conform to that in The Concise Oxford Dictionary or Websters New Collegiate Dictionary. All unusual or handwritten symbols should be identified. Care should be taken to differentiate between certain letters and numbers (e.g. the letter O and zero, the letter I and the number 1).

It is important to differentiate between genes and proteins. All gene names and loci should be italic; proteins should be upright.

Article length should generally be kept to around 10 printed pages, with a maximum number of 7 data displays (for guidance, 10 printed pages of full text are equal to 8800 words; 10 pages including 7 data displays of single-column width are equivalent to approximately 7000 words.)  The Editors will, however, consider longer papers where appropriate, especially in cases where more complete stories are being reported.  The total word count (excluding data displays) must be given on the front page of the manuscript.  A breakdown of the word count for each section of the manuscript should also be provided.

All sections of the manuscript should be typed double-spaced with margins of at least 30 mm all round. The title page should include: the full title of the paper; the full names of all the authors; the name(s) and address(es) of the institution(s) at which the work was carried out (the present addresses of the authors, if different from the above, should appear in a footnote); the name, address, telephone and fax numbers and e-mail address of the author to whom all correspondence and proofs should be sent; the e-mail addresses of all the authors if possible; a suggested running title of not more than 50 characters, including spaces; six key words to aid indexing; accession numbers for the sequence data and Arabidopsis seed stock if required; word count.

Generally, all papers should be divided into the following sections and appear in the order: (1) Summary, not exceeding 250 words, (2) Introduction, (3) Results, (4) Discussion, (5) Experimental procedures, (6) Acknowledgements, (7) References, (8) Tables, (9) Figure legends, (10) Figures. The Results and Discussion sections may be combined and may contain subheadings. Experimental procedures should be sufficiently detailed to enable the experiments to be reproduced. Trade names should be capitalized and the manufacturer's name and address given.

All pages must be numbered consecutively from the title page, and include the acknowledgements, references, tables, and figure legends.


Submission of Revised Manuscripts
 

Authors should submit the revised version of their manuscript online via the submission site http://tpj.manuscriptcentral.com following the instructions provided in their editorial correspondence. They should at the same time send a hard copy and disk or CD of their manuscript and the original figures to the Editorial Office, along with any other requested enclosures. Authors should mark in bold the changes made on revision and also provide a letter of response to the reviewers' comments, detailing point by point the changes made and giving reasons for those not made.

Revised manuscripts must be received within 2 months of authors being notified of conditional acceptance pending satisfactory revision. Revised manuscripts received after this time will be considered as completely new submissions, and be subject again to the full review procedure. This time limit will be rigidly adhered to except under unusual circumstances, which must be explained in full, in writing, to both the Handling Editor and the Managing Editor.

Revised manuscripts must be in their final form when submitted. The proofs received later are for correction of typographical errors only. They should not be used for final changes to articles; such changes must be made to the manuscript before it goes to the publishers. Major alterations to the text at proof stage will be charged to the author and may delay publication.

Manuscripts should be checked very carefully for correct designation of genes and proteins. It is important to differentiate between genes and proteins. Gene names and loci should be italic, proteins should be upright.

It is essential that authors return one signed copy of the Copyright Assignment Form to the Editorial Office with their revised manuscripts. A completed colour work agreement form must also be returned with the revised manuscript if it contains colour. Failure to return the forms will delay the publication of manuscripts if they are accepted.

Supplementary Material 

Supplementary Material, such as data sets or additional figures or tables, that will not be published in the print edition of the journal, but which will be viewable via the online edition, can be submitted.

It should be clearly stated at the time of submission that the Supplementary Material is intended to be made available through the online edition. Supplementary Material will be made available in electronic form free of charge either through these Web pages or on request from Blackwell Publishing. Alternatively, if the size or format of the Supplementary Material is such that it cannot be accommodated on the journal's Web site, the author agrees to make the Supplementary Material available free of charge on a permanent Web site, to which links will be set up from The Plant Journal's Web site. The author must advise Blackwell Publishing if the URL of the Web site where the Supplementary Material is located changes. The content of the Supplementary Material must not be altered after the paper has been accepted for publication.

The availability of Supplementary Material should be indicated in the main manuscript by a paragraph, to appear after the References, headed "Supplementary Material" and providing titles of figures, tables, etc. In order to protect reviewer anonymity, material posted on the authors Web site cannot be reviewed. If the size or format is such that it cannot be submitted online, four copies on CD or disk must be provided. The Supplementary Material is an integral part of the article and will be reviewed accordingly.

Disk Submission of Manuscripts

When supplying your manuscript on disk or CD, please follow these instructions and return the disk or CD, File Description Form and hard copy of your manuscript to the Editiorial Office (not to the handling Editor).

  • The final version of the hard copy and the floppy disk/CD must be the same. It is essential that the disk/CD contains any last-minute changes.
  • File name(s) should be given, with separate file names for: text, references, tables, figure captions.
  • If possible, files should be supplied in both word processor and ASCII formats.
  • Consistency is important. The same presentation should be used for all headings, etc. that are to appear the same in the finished printing.
  • Tables may not be set from disk/CD, and it is essential that an adequate hard copy is supplied.
  • Details should be given of any matter that could cause a problem.
  • A File Description Form is available to print out or can be obtained from the Editorial Office.
  • The carriage return (enter) should not be used at the end of lines within a paragraph.
  • Disks/CDs will not be returned to authors.

Units and Abbreviations

Système International (SI) units should be used, as given in Units, Symbols and Abbreviations, published by the Royal Society of Medicine Services Ltd, 1 Wimpole Street, London W1M 8AE, UK. Abbreviations included in the list published in the final issue of each volume of The Plant Journal need not be defined. Other abbreviations should be given in words the first time they are used.

Scientific Names

Complete scientific names should be given when organisms are first mentioned. The generic name may subsequently be abbreviated to the initial.

References

References should be cited in the text by author and date, e.g. Shah and Klessig (1999). Joint authors should be referred to by et al. if there are more than two, e.g. Sambrook et al. (1989). More than one paper from the same author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters a, b, c, etc., placed after the year of publication. Listings of references in the text should be alphabetical, e.g. (Sambrook et al., 1989; Shah and Klessig, 1999). At the end of the paper, references should be listed alphabetically according to the first named author. The full titles of papers, chapters and books should be given, the abbreviated names of journals, with the first and last page numbers.

Examples

Lacomme, C. and Santa Cruz, S. (1999) Bax-induced cell death in tobacco is similar to the hypersensitive response. Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA, 96, 7956-7961.

Sambrook, J., Fritsch, E.F. and Maniatis, T. (1989) Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual 2nd edn. Cold Spring Harbor: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press.

Shah, J. and Klessig, D.F. (1999) Salicylic acid: signal perception and transduction. In Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of Plant Hormones (Hooykaas, P.P.J., Hall, M.A. and Libbenga, K.R., eds). New York: Elsevier Science, pp. 513-541.

Work that has not been accepted for publication and personal communications should not appear in the reference list, but may be referred to in the text. It is the authors' responsibility to obtain permission from colleagues to include their work as a personal communication.

Figures

When submitting revised manuscripts, authors should send a set of reproduction-quality figures to the Editorial Office, as well as including them on the disk/CD being sent. Figures and photographs should be supplied and submitted as either laser copies or high-quality glossy prints as appropriate in the size that they will appear in the Journal. With the exception of composite photographs suitable for full-page reproduction (maximum width, including lettering, 16.8 cm), all other figures should be set to a maximum width of 8 cm (including all lettering). Labelling on the figures should be in 8pt Helvetica if possible. Figure sections should be designated with lower case letters. Magnification bars should be given on electron and light microscope photographs. All figures should be identified with the figure number and authors names in soft pencil or on labels on the back, and the top edge should be indicated.

Figure legends should be typed on sheets separate to those containing the figures and contain sufficient information to be understood without reference to the text, but should not contain methods. Each should begin with a short title for the figure. All symbols and abbreviations used in the figures should be explained. In the full text online edition of the journal, figure legends may be truncated in abbreviated links to the full screen version. Therefore the first 100 characters of any legend should inform the reader of key aspects of the figure.

The journal welcomes colour photographs. It is the policy of The Plant Journal for authors to pay the full cost for the reproduction of their colour artwork. Therefore, please note that if there is colour artwork in your manuscript when it is accepted for publication, Blackwell Publishing require you to complete and return a colour work agreement form before your paper can be published. This form can be downloaded as a PDF* from the internet. The web address for the form is:

http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/Sub3000_X_CoW.pdf

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

Under exceptional circumstances, authors may request waiver of these charges. This must be done, in writing, at the time of submission of the manuscript, and authors must justify to the Editors that inclusion of the figure(s) in colour is essential for interpretation of the results presented.

Electronic Artwork 

Artwork should be supplied in electronic form. Vector graphics (e.g. line artwork) should be saved in Encapsulated Postscript Format (EPS), and bitmap files (e.g. half-tones) in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF). Ideally, vector graphics that have been saved in metafile (.WMF) or pict (.PCT) format should be embedded within the body of the text file. Detailed information on digital illustration standards is available at:

http://www.blackwell-science.com/elecmed/authors.htm

Tables

Tables should be typed on separate sheets. They should have a brief descriptive title and be self-explanatory. No vertical rules should be used. Units should appear in parentheses in the column headings, not in the body of the table. Repeated words or numerals on successive lines should be written in full.

Proofs

Proofs will be sent via e-mail as an Acrobat PDF (portable document format) file. Therefore, the corresponding author should supply their email address when they submit their manuscript. The e-mail server must be able to accept attachments up to 4 MB in size. Acrobat Reader will be required in order to read this file. This software can be downloaded (free of charge) from the following Web site:

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readermain.html

This will enable the file to be opened, read on screen, and printed out in order for any corrections to be added. Further instructions will be sent with the proof. Proofs will be posted if no e-mail address is available; in your absence, please arrange for a colleague to access your e-mail to retrieve the proofs.

Major alterations to the text will be charged to the author and may delay publication.

Offprints

Twenty-five offprints of each article will be supplied free. Additional offprints may be purchased if ordered on the form supplied with the proofs.

Registration of Sequences

New nucleotide sequence data reported in papers published in The Plant Journal must be submitted and deposited in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases and accession numbers obtained.  Any accepted manuscript that does not have such numbers by the page proof stage will not be published until the numbers are provided.  Full details on obtaining accesssion numbers are given in the final issue of each volume of the Journal or can be obtained on request from the Editorial Office.  Submission to any one of the three collaborating databanks is sufficient to ensure data entry in all.

Cover Photograph

Photographs of high quality suitable for the cover of The Plant Journal are welcomed. They should preferably be supplied as glossy photos, 212 mm wide x 172 mm high.They should be sent to the Editorial Office and be accompanied by a brief descriptive summary. It is preferred, but not essential, that these should be related to submitted papers. Authors whose photographs are featured on the cover will have, at no additional cost, 100 of their offprints bound in the cover.
