About the journal
Mycological Research
|
Mycological Research is the leading international, and only monthly outlet, for original research on all aspects of fungi (including lichens, slime moulds and yeasts): molecular biology, physiology, plant pathology, systematics, ultrastructure, biochemistry, biodeterioration, biotechnology, and genetics. It also publishes reviews, book reviews, and 'Mycological Research News' - a compilation of topical information and commentary. Fast-tracked papers appear 12-16 weeks after acceptance and regular papers in 20-24 weeks. Papers from particular symposia are sometimes included. With a reputation for rigorous editorial standards, high quality half-tones and colour reproduction, and now with fast-track publication, Mycological Research is considered the premier journal in its field. |

Instructions to Authors
Mycological Research is an international journal which publishes papers in all fields of mycology including biotechnology and industrial applications of fungi, and plant, animal and human pathology.
Mycological Research will publish both full length and short papers reporting original research which makes a significant contribution to mycology. Review articles on themes of topical interest are welcome.
There are no page charges, and non-members of the Society are encouraged to submit manuscripts for publication. Authors receive a free supply of reprints.
Full Instructions to Authors were published in volume 104 (1) (January 2000), pp. 119-127. REFER TO THESE AND RECENT ISSUES OF THE JOURNAL FOR DETAILED GUIDANCE.
Manuscripts and enquiries should be directed to: Professor David L Hawksworth CBE, Executive Editor, Departmento de Biologia Vegetal II Facultad de Farmacia Universidad Complutense Plaza de Ramon y Cajal, Ciudad Universitaria E-28040 MADRID Spain email: davidh@eucmos.sim.ucm.es To submit a manuscript to Mycological Research send: (1) THREE copies of the typescript which must be double-spaced throughout.
(2) A disk or emailed electronic version, ideally in Microsoft Word.
(3) ONE complete set of illustrations comprising original line drawings and first class photographic prints intended for use by the printer in preparing the published version of your paper (identify each separate item with your name and short title of the paper). Mounted illustrations MUST NOT exceed A4 in size.
(4) TWO complete sets of fully labelled illustrations, which may be of lesser quality unless this diminishes their scientific value, for use in the refereeing process (make sure that these are also identified with your name and paper title.) (5) A covering letter which clearly states the name and address of the person with whom the Editors should correspond and which confirms explicitly that (a) all named authors have agreed to publication of the work, and (b) the manuscript does not infringe any other person's copyright or property rights.
(6) The names of 3-5 mycologists not in your institution with appropriate expertise who might be considered as possible referees for your paper.
(7) If the manuscript makes reference to other papers which are `in press' please include a copy of such unpublished papers for the benefit of the referees.
(8) Faxed submissions of textual material (but not illustrations) are welcome, but an electronic version will also be required.
The first page of your manuscript should show the title of the paper, names of authors and their affiliations, a running title (not more than 50 characters and spaces), and a short summary. Not all papers can be presented in the conventional form, so we are willing to allow some flexibility in layout. However, papers describing conventional experimental work should be set out in the five major sections Summary, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion. The summary and introduction do not carry headings in the printed text but the others should be given the headings shown in the previous sentence.
These major sections can be subdivided by up to two levels of subheading. You do not need to attempt to reproduce the typographical layout of Mycological Research in your typescript.
Spelling and punctuation. English spellings are required, and should follow The Concise Oxford Dictionary (Oxford: Clarendon Press). Words of non-English origin, like bona fide, prima facie, in vitro, in situ, will be printed in italic type and should be underlined in the manuscript.
Experimental procedures. A basic assumption is that the paper describes research in sufficient detail for it to be repeatable by the reader. Consequently, all experimental methods should be described briefly, but in sufficient detail to allow others to reproduce the experiments. All materials must be available to others.
This means that commercial sources must be identified, proprietory materials must be patented prior to publication (so that they can be released), and all cultures, strains or varieties on which the work is based must be deposited in an identified culture collection from which they can be obtained by others.
Statistical treatment of results. Numerical data which lack statistical analysis are valueless and will not be published. Data from a sufficient number of independent experiments should be reported to permit evaluation of the reproducibility and significance of results. When any significance is claimed, the test of significance used should be stated and an estimate of the probability given. If you use complex statistical transformations a few lines of explanation in plain English of the purpose and the outcome of the test should be provided.
Figures. ALL FIGURES (LINE DRAWING AND HALF-TONE ALIKE) MUST BE NUMBERED CONSECUTIVELY IN ONE SERIES within the manuscript. This also applies to composite plates or montages, each component of which must be one of the consecutively-numbered figures. Figures should be sized to take up the minimum possible space. Colour photographic illustrations can be included if they are essential to the paper but only by prior discussion with the Executive Editor. Magnifications MUST be indicated by SCALEBARS and these MUST show whole numbers of the most appropriate unit.
Reference citation in text. References in the text are to be given in the following form: 'Smith & Jones (1965) have shown ...', or, 'some authors (Williams, 1928; Smith & Jones, 1965) consider that ...'. The names of collaborating authors are joined by ampersand (&). Where there are three authors, all names should be given at first citation, and thereafter the first name only, adding et al., e.g. Smith, Jones & Robinson (1964) at first, then Smith et al. (1964) or (Smith et al., 1964) subsequently. Where there are four or more authors, use the form Smith et al. for all citations. Where an author or authors have published more than one work in a year, to which a reference is made, they should be distinguished by letters a, b, etc. immediately after the date, e.g. Smith (1965a, b).
Citations in Reference list. References are to be listed in strictly alphabetical order at the end of the text.
Arrangement in the reference list is based on the Harvard system, but each reference should include the full title of the paper AND JOURNAL (not in an abbreviated form), and the final as well as the first page number. In the case of chapters in books, the names of editors, first and last page numbers of the chapters, publisher and place of publication are needed.
COPYRIGH
tUnder the United Kingdom's Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (1988), copyright in the typographical arrangement of all papers published in Mycological Research will rest with the British Mycological Society (the Publisher of Mycological Research). Except for the activities which are permitted under Chapter III of the above Act, before any paper or part of a paper can be reproduced the consent of the British Mycological Society must be obtained from the Executive Editor. Copyright in the typographical arrangement is quite distinct from ownership of copyright of the literary work represented by the text, and artistic work represented by the graphic and photographic components of individual papers. The first part of this paragraph does not affect the first ownership of these copyrights. In most cases they will remain the property of the employer of the author of the paper (section 11 of the Act).
