Manuscripts should be submitted to one of the editors.
Three hardcopies of the manuscript should be submitted together with an
electronic version of the text in MS Office format (*.doc).
In preparing the manuscripts, the authors are kindly requested to adhere to the
following instructions. Please consult also the sample article or a recent issue of
Phyton.
Manuscripts must be typewritten, double-spaced, single-sided, leaving a wide (3-
4 cm) margin on the left. The beginning of a paragraph should be indicated by
indenting the first line.
The title of the paper must be concise but informative. The subject matter of the
contribution must be described as well as possible.
Authors' names must be spelled in full with a middle initial if appropriate.
Authors' address(es) should be stated as a foot-note on the first page of the
paper. Please indicate an e-mail address.
List 4 to 6 keywords including words used in the title.
If the paper is in English, text must be preceded by an English summary, which is
followed by a German one containing also a translation of the English title. Editors
will procure the translations if the authors are not able to provide it. The summary
should contain the important new results, but no references.
The text should be organized in introduction, material and methods, results,
discussion, acknowledgements, and references.
The introduction should explain the purpose of the work and its relations to
other studies in this field. Descriptions of materials and methods should provide
sufficient information to permit repetition of the experimental work. The origin of
the material investigated, methods of preparation and the herbaria in which the
vouchers are deposited, should be indicated. SI-units are requested. Uncommon
abbreviations should be explained in the methods section. The discussion should
interpret the main results, not recapitulate them.
The scientific names of the taxa (species and lower ones) must be quoted
completely, giving the name of the genus, species epitheton (if necessary
subspecies, cultivar etc.) and the author, when mentioned the first time.
References to the cited papers are given in the text by the name of the author
and the year of publication, e.g. METZNER 1971 or TAUSZ & GRILL 2000. The
abbreviation citation "& al." should be used when there are more than two
authors.
References to the cited works (and only those) are to be arranged alphabetically
at the end of the paper, the papers of the same author(s) should be listed in
chronological order. References are to be formatted as follows:
Journal articles:
HATCH M. D. & SLACK C. N. 1970. Photosynthetic CO2-fixation pathways. -
Ann. Rev. Plant Physiol. 21: 141-263.
Journal abbreviations as listed in the Journal Citations Reports.
Chapters in edited books:
ASADA K. 1994. Mechanisms for scavenging reactive molecules generated in
chloroplasts under light stress. - In: BAKER N. R. & BOWYER J. R. (Eds.),
Photoinhibition of photosynthesis from molecular mechanisms to the field, pp.
129-142. - Bios. scientific publishers. Lancaster.
References to unpublished work, manuscripts in preparation, or in the review
process elsewhere, and personal communications should not be included in the
reference list. They may be mentioned in the text as "unpublished", "personal
communication" etc.
Foot notes and references to other parts of the paper by page numbers should be
avoided.
The required type-setting instructions should be indicated by underlining the
respective words: author's names (to be set in small Capitals) = straight line,
scientific names of any plant taxa (but not names of plant communities), to be set
in italics = wavy line. The literature references must be marked in the same
manner.
In the case of taxonomic keys, the lines must be utilizied fully (e.g. Rothmalers
Exkursionsflora and Rechingers Flora Iranica). Indentions of lines (e.g. Flora
Europaea) are not admissible.
The number of both tables and illustrations must be kept to the necessary
minimum. Repeated presentation of the same data by tables and figures will not
be accepted. In case of doubt, figures (line drawings) are preferred.
Line drawings may be submitted in any medium providing that the image is black
and very sharp. They should preferably all require the same degree of reduction;
large diagrams, more than four times final size, are discouraged due to handling
difficulties. The printed area of the journal is 11,3 x 18 cm and lettering must be
large enough to be legible after reduction of the illustration to fit (minimum size of
2 mm after reduction).
Photographs should be submitted as contrasting black-and-white prints on
glossy paper. Each illustration must be clearly numbered and the name(s) of the
author(s) of the paper written on the reverse side.
Scale of a figure (e.g. micrographs) should be indicated by a scale bar in the
figures, not by listing factors (e.g. 1000 x) in the legend. Colour prints are
reproduced at the author's expense only. Brief legends to the figures (line
drawings as well as photographs) must be enclosed with the manuscript on a
separate sheet.
The authors are requested to correct the galley proofs carefully and to return
them within two weeks to the editor. Only printing errors should be corrected at
that stage. The cost of alterations in the text exceeding 10 percent of the setting
will be charged to the author. It is assumed that the consent to publish & transfer
of copyright is given with the return of the proofs.
The authors will receive 60 reprints of their papers free of charge. Additional
copies may be ordered with the Order Form enclosed with the galley proofs. The
price will be quoted on the Order Form, which has to be returned with the
proofs.
