1. PUBLICATION POLICIES
1-1. Policies
Papers to be published in the Journal must deal with results of original research of scientific value in horticultural
science. Types of manuscripts consist of REVIEWS and ARTICLES. REVIEWS are written by persons
commissioned by the editorial committee.
The essential contents of articles must not have been published in a referred publication (including in press and
submission). Materials previously published in extension bulletins, commercial magazines, etc. will be examined
carefully by the Editorial Committee to prevent duplication on receipt of a copy of the publication in question
together with the manuscript. Publication of abstracts in the Annual Meeting of the Society, however, does not
preclude a later publication of a full report in the Journal.
1-2. Membership
Membership of the Society is a requirement for submission. Senior and corresponding authors must be individual
members (including Student members) of the Society. Nonmembers may be coauthors, but are urged to consider
membership.
1-3. Copyright
The copyright for the published article will be transferred to the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science.
1-4. Submission
Manuscripts should be submitted through the on-line submission system in the J-Stage
(http://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/browse/jjshs). After access to the web, you will be conducted through the on-line
submission procedure of our journal in a stepwise manner. The authors should prepare PDF or image PDF files of
the manuscript for the up-load. The manuscripts should be written in English based on our Society's
PUBLICATION POLICIES and PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPTS. ARTICLES are desired not to exceed 5
printed pages, tables and figures included. About 55 characters × 114 lines will be composed on one printed page.
1-5. Review procedure
A Journal manuscript number will be assigned to each new manuscript. Always refer to the Journal manuscript
number in all correspondence about the manuscript and proofing. The acceptance of manuscripts for publication
in the Journal is based on the review by the Editorial Committee. The author(s) will usually be requested to
perform some revision of the contents and wording after the review, and final acceptance may depend on the
extent of revision. The acceptance will be cancelled when the manuscript is not returned within a month for any
revision. When the manuscript is not returned for two months, the manuscript will be considered withdrawn.
1-6. Procedure after acceptance
Two copies of the final edition of manuscripts after the acceptance and proof reading for English should be sent to
the Managing Editor together with a floppy disk (3.5” 2HD) formatted for MS-DOS (Windows) or Mac-OS, MO
disk or CD on which the manuscript is stored. Electric files for popular word processing software, e.g., WORD
can be converted, but plain text files (*.txt) of the document, tables and legend of figures should also be attached.
If figures in electric files are used as originals, the authors should inform the Managing Editor and remember to
attach printed figures in the final version of manuscripts. Both dates of receipt and acceptance should be stated in
the footnote on the first page of the manuscripts. The final version of manuscripts should be sent by registered
mail to:
Managing Editor,
The Japanese Society for Horticultural Science
Graduate School of Bioagricultural Science
Nagoya University
Furo-cho, Chikusa-ku, Nagoya 464-8601, Japan
The manuscript will not be returned even after publication, but figures and photographs will be returned on
request. The authors should also prepare PDF or image PDF files of the manuscript for the up-load.
The first galley proof will be sent to the corresponding author. The galley should be proofread carefully,
corrected if necessary, and returned by express mail to the Managing Editor together with the manuscript within
three days after receipt. Correction must be limited to the typographical errors, and any change or addition to the
wording or in Tables and Figures is not permitted. When corrections are necessary to the printed article, the author
should apply for erratum within a month after publication in the following format:
Author(s)'s name(s), Page, Column, Line, Error and Correction.
1-7. Publishing fee
The author(s) must pay a publication fee based on the number of printed pages and also the cost price if the
ARTICLE manuscript exceeds 5 printed pages, or if art paper or color printing is desired. These charges must be
defrayed without delay at the request of the Managing Accountant of the Society. No charge will be assessed for
REVIEWS.
Fifty reprints without covers will be sent to the corresponding author free of charge. Additional reprints can be
purchased at a fixed price. Charges for the reprints and their covers must be also defrayed without delay at the
request of the Managing Accountant of the Society. Without payment of the publication fee, acceptance and
publication of the manuscript will be cancelled.
The following charges must be paid by the author(s).
Page charge:
1 to 5 pages: 7000 yen per page
Over 5 pages: 15000 yen per excess page
Charge for reprints:
50 reprints: free of charge

For the purpose of promoting submission of papers to our journal from countries except Japan, International
Individual members (including International Student members) of our society can apply to the editorial committee
for page charge discount at the initial submission. The applicant must be a corresponding author of a submitted
paper, and a Japanese author must not be included in the list of authors of the paper for this application. The
applicants must send the Managing Editor a letter indicating the intention of application, when they submit their
manuscripts. The application may not always be accepted because of budget limitation. The Editorial Committee
will decide this issue. When the application is accepted, the page charge within 5 pages is fixed at 10000 yen.
However, page charges for over 5 pages are not discounted (15000 yen per excess page).
2. PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPTS
2-1. Format
Manuscripts should be typed on one side of A4 size white paper or the near equivalent with black ink, 25 lines per
sheet and double spacing throughout, leaving a margin of at least 25 mm all around. The manuscript should be
printed about 12 point. Times New Roman font should be used, if possible. The manuscripts should be prepared as
PDF or image PDF files for on-line submission.
Manuscripts should, in general, be arranged in the following order: 1) Title, 2) Author(s)'s name(s), 3)
Affiliation(s) and Mailing address(es), 4) Abstract, 5) Key Words, 6) Text (Introduction, Materials and Methods,
Results, Discussion, or Results and Discussion), 7) Literature Cited, 8) Tables and Figures, 9) Abstract in Japanese
with title, author(s)'s name(s) and affiliation(s). State Acknowledgements after Discussion. Abstract in Japanese is
not necessary for submission from foreign countries.
Tables and Figures will be inserted in the printed article at the places prescribed in the text, but, at submission,
should be numbered separately, arranged in this order and placed after Literature Cited. All legends of figures
should be typed on a separate and numbered sheet, and the sheet should be placed immediately following tables.
Arabic numerals should be used in all cases except the beginning of sentences. For technical terms, refer to the
Horticultural Terminology edited by the Society. In principal, Romanized Japanese in the Hepburn style should be
used.
2-2. Title page
Title, name(s) of author(s), affiliation(s) and mailing address(es) should be typed on the first page of the
manuscript. The title should be a concise description of the contents of the paper. Serial titles indicating a series of
related papers are undesirable. Capitalize the first letter of all words except articles, prepositions and
conjunctions.
The by-lines should include the name(s) of the author(s) on one line and a concise mailing address in italics
below. When multiple authors are from separate institutions, indicate their respective addresses separately by
superscript numbers.
The date when received for publication, identifications of the paper as part of serial numbers, or part of an
institution's Journal series, sponsorship by any fund and presentation of the paper at the Annual Meeting of the
Society should be indicated in footnotes on the title page.
Indicate the corresponding author with superscript of * and state as “* Corresponding author (E-mail:
xxxxx@yyy.zz).” in a footnote. When a change occurs in author(s)'s institution(s), indicate with a superscript of
** and state the new institution in footnote on the title page.
2-3. Abstract and Key words
The abstract should be a concise summation of the findings and typed beginning on the second sheet. It must
not exceed 5 % of the length of the text and be written in one paragraph, not itemized. Five or less than five
keywords should be also indicated after the abstract. The key words should be arranged alphabetically.
2-4. Text
Headings
Center and capitalize the first letter of each word in the main headings of the paper and type in bold letters: e.g.,
Introduction, Materials and Methods. Variations of these subheadings may be used. Place secondary headings
in italics, if necessary, at the beginning of a paragraph with the first letter of the first word capitalized. If they are
numbered, the arrangement should be in the following order: 1., 2., 3., ...; 1), 2), 3), ...; (1), (2), (3), ...; i), ii),
iii), ....
Quotations in text
If reference is made in the text to the publications listed in Literature Cited, refer to them by the author(s)'s
name(s) and the year published in parentheses ( ). They can also be referred to by the author(s)’s name(s) (the last
name(s) alone in roman letters), and in the case of publications written by three or more authors, the name of the
senior author should be used followed by et al. Unpublished references should be indicated parenthetically in the
paper as (unpublished), (unpublished data) or (personal communication).
Quotations in the text should be listed alphabetically with the author(s)’s name(s), and then chronologically per
author surrounded by parentheses with the following format: (Kataoka and Takamura, 2004; Masuda, 1988,
1991; Yoshida et al., 1998a,b)
Abbreviations
Organic chemicals, enzymes, standard procedures and other cases, which are abbreviated for the reader's
convenience, should always be named first in full, with parenthetical reference to the abbreviation used
subsequently: e. g., 2-(3-chlorophenoxy) propionic acid (3-CP), phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL), thin layer
chromatograph (TLC).
Name of commercial products
Use of trade or brand names is not desirable in scientific literature and it should be avoided especially in the title.
When obliged to use them, the active ingredient, chemical formula, purity, diluent or solvent, etc. should be stated
clearly in parentheses. The first letter of trade or brand names should be capitalized.
The preceding clause applies also to the names of commercial fertilizers. When giving the amounts of mineral
nutrients, state clearly whether they are expressed in terms of the nutrient elements or their oxides.
Nomenclature
The scientific name of the genus, species and subspecies should be given in italics with the authority in roman
letters and, if necessary, the cultivar name(s) ─e.g. Diospyros kaki Thunb. ‘Fuyu’─the first time a species is
mentioned in the paper. The scientific names of the major organisms in the paper should be listed in the title or
abstract. If the authority is listed in the title or abstract, it can be dispensed with thereafter. Common names of
well-known crops (apple, tomato, rose, etc.) can be used in titles. Cultivar name(s) should be enclosed by single
quotes unless they appear in the body of a table or a figure. Cultivar names should be always capitalized. For the
scientific and common names of the horticultural crops, refer to the List of Horticultural Crops edited by the
Society.
Units
The metric system is required for all measurements. SI units should be used, but some other units, which are
important practically, can be used. Examples of units are:
Length: m, km, cm, mm, μm, nm
Area: m2, km2, cm2, mm2, a, ha
Volume: m3，cm3，mm3，L，mL，μL，nL，pL
Time: s, min, h, day(s)，week(s)，month(s)，year(s)
Frequency: Hz, rpm
Mass: kg, g, mg, μg, ng, pg, t
Pressure: Pa, N•m-2, bar, mbar, atm, mmHg (only for blood pressure), Torr (only for pressure in vivo), pF
Temperature: K, ℃
Work, Calory: J, cal (only for nutritive and metabolic value)
Electricity: A, mA; V, mV; Ω; W, kW, mW
Light: cd; μmol･m-2･s-1; lx, klx; lm
Mass concentration: mol, mmol; mol・L-1 = M, mM, μM; N (normal)
Radioactivity: Bq, Ci; Gy, rad; R
Miscellaneous: ×g, pH, cpm, %, ppm, ppb
Always use abbreviations for standard units as gram (g), milligram (mg), centimeter (cm) and hectare (ha). In
other words, authors should avoid using abbreviations without any information. However, in tables and figures,
standard abbreviations may be used, if necessary, for format considerations, in addition to those for standard units:
e.g., no., wt, ht, conc, FW, DW, vol.
Letter indication
Use italics in the byline address, in secondary headings and for scientific names of organisms. Use bold letters for
main headings and Literature Cited. Literal quotations and words giving a special meaning should be enclosed
with double quotes.
2-5. Literature Cited
All publications cited in the paper should be listed in Literature Cited. They should be arranged alphabetically
with the author(s)’s name(s), and then chronologically per author.
Type in full and do not abbreviate the titles, author(s)'s name(s), names of periodicals etc., even if they appear
in the successive papers. The papers accepted for publication should be listed in Literature Cited as (In press).
Names of Periodicals, etc. should be abbreviated as prescribed by the societies concerned. In book titles, only the
first letter of the first word should be capitalized except for proper nouns. The issue number of the Journal is not
necessary if pagination is continuous within each volume.

2-6. Tables and Figures
Tables and figures (including photographs) should be labeled with and numbered separately with Arabic
numerals according to the sequence in which they are cited. The first letter of the titles, legends, column and row
headings and explanations should be capitalized. The titles, legends and explanations should be terminated with a
period. The same data should not be displayed in both tables and figures. At submission, place tables, figures and
photographs separately in this order after Literature Cited.
The title of each table should be brief and self-explanatory so that reference to the text is absolutely unnecessary.
Information to legends in figures should be also clear and concise. Place the title above the body of the table.
Avoid the use of vertical lines to separate columns, and also minimize the use of horizontal lines. Column and row
headings, with footnotes, should be self-explanatory. Use lower case letters at the end of the alphabet (z, y, x, ...)
in superscription to identify tabular footnotes. However, do not use the superscript of letters in figures, and spell
out the abbreviation(s) in the legend of the Figure to explain. Use lower case letters at the beginning of the
alphabet (a, b, c, ...) or asterisk (*), with explanatory footnotes, to indicate statistical significance at the 5% level
and capitals or ** for significance at the 1% level.
Both printed figures including photographs and figures in electric files can be used as originals. If printed
figures are used as originals, the figures should be set out on A4 size white paper or the near equivalent and
photographs should be mounted on cardboard in the final version of manuscripts after acceptance and
proofreading for English. If figures in electric files are used as originals, JPEG, TIFF or EPS files (at least 360 dpi
in photographs or 1200 dpi in other figures) should be prepared. In this case, printed figures must be contained in
every version of the manuscripts as well as the final version.
