Journal Guide

PhytoFrontiers™ launched in mid-2020. As a gold open access journal, it is an ideal place for authors who elect or are required to publish open access. With its broad plant health scope, PhytoFrontiers is a new venue for those who wish to publish research that was previously out of scope of the existing APS journals. As the journal strives to publish all rigorous research regardless of impact, PhytoFrontiers also provides space for plant pathologists to publish negative results or results perceived as having no impact.

PhytoKeys is a peer-reviewed, open access, rapidly published journal, launched to accelerate research and free information exchange in taxonomy, phylogeny, biogeography and evolution of plants. The journal applies cutting-edge technologies in publishing and preservation of digital materials to meet the highest possible standards of the cybertaxonomy era.

PhytoKeys publishes papers in systematic Botany containing taxonomic/floristic data on any taxon of any geological age from any part of the world on the following topics: descriptions of new taxa, taxonomic revisions of extant and fossil plant groups, checklists and catalogues, phylogenetic and evolutionary analyses, papers in descriptive and/or historical biogeography, methodology papers, monographs, etc. Extensive floristic overviews on a group in a country or larger region are welcome. Short floristic contributions may be considered if they are based on significant or unexpected discovery.

Phytobiomes is a transdisciplinary journal of original research on organisms and communities interacting with plants in any ecosystem. It includes the fundamental to translational work of scientists in the areas of microbiology, virology, nutrient cycling, climate change, ecology, agronomy, entomology, computational biology, nematology, plant pathology, and more.

Phytochemical Analysisis devoted to the publication of original articles concerning the development, improvement, validation and/or extension of application of analytical methodology in the plant sciences. The spectrum of coverage is broad, encompassing methods and techniques relevant to the detection (including bio-screening), extraction, separation, purification, identification and quantification of compounds in plant biochemistry, plant cellular and molecular biology, plant biotechnology, the food sciences, agriculture and horticulture. The Journal publishes papers describing significant novelty in the analysis of whole plants (including algae), plant cells, tissues and organs, plant-derived extracts and plant products (including those which have been partially or completely refined for use in the food, agrochemical, pharmaceutical and related industries). All forms of physical, chemical, biochemical, spectroscopic, radiometric, electrometric, chromatographic, metabolomic and chemometric investigations of plant products (monomeric species as well as polymeric molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) are included within the remit of the Journal. Papers dealing with novel methods relating to areas such as data handling/ data mining in plant sciences will also be welcomed. Phytochemical Analysisis intended to serve as a major resource for information on analytical and instrumental methodology in the plant sciences. Together with original articles and accelerated communications, all of which will be both timely and of interest to a wide readership, short review articles describing recent advances in specific areas of plant analysis will be published. Reviews are by invitation only, but the Editor-in-Chief welcomes suggestions for new review topics from potential authors.

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing research on plant-derived compounds, bioactive phytochemicals, and their roles in nutrition, functional foods, and medicine. Covering topics such as phytochemical composition, bioavailability, mechanisms of action, and clinical applications, the journal bridges traditional knowledge with modern scientific approaches. It welcomes original research, reviews, and critical analyses on disease prevention, therapeutic strategies, and biotechnological innovations. With a strong focus on sustainability, food safety, and regulatory frameworks, this journal is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and food scientists exploring the health benefits of phytochemicals.

Phytochemistry is the international journal of pure and applied plant chemistry, plant biochemistry and molecular biology, published 12 times per annum by Elsevier. The majority of these publications will be Regular Issues covering research on all aspects of pure and applied plant biochemistry, especially that which leads to a deeper understanding of the factors underlying the growth, development and metabolism of plants and the chemistry of plant constituents. Phytochemistry is a primary source for papers dealing with plant secondary compounds, especially with regard to their biosynthesis and diverse properties. Phytochemistry is the official organ of The Phytochemical Society of Europe and The Phytochemical Society of North America. The Journal is currently divided into several sections as indicated below, but papers which cut across these sections or which are on any other aspect of plant biochemistry will also be considered.

Phytochemistry Letters invites rapid communications on all aspects of natural product research including:• Structural elucidation of natural products• Analytical evaluation of herbal medicines• Clinical efficacy, safety and pharmacovigilance of herbal medicines• Natural product biosynthesis• Natural product synthesis and chemical modification• Natural product metabolism• Chemical ecology• Biotechnology• Bioassay-guided isolation• Pharmacognosy• Pharmacology of natural products• Metabolomics• Ethnobotany and traditional usage• Genetics of natural productsManuscripts that detail the isolation of just one new compound are not substantial enough to be sent out of review and are out of scope. Furthermore, where pharmacology has been performed on one new compound to increase the amount of novel data, the pharmacology must be substantial and/or related to the medicinal use of the producing organism.For more details please follow this link IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS

Phytochemistry Reviews is an international review journal that publishes peer-reviewed papers in four issues annually. The journal examines topical issues, some of which result from meetings organized by the Phytochemical Society of Europe. The journal also presents original review papers advancing knowledge of plants in respect to their chemistry, function, biosynthesis, effects on other plants, animal physiology and pathology. Also covered is the application of such knowledge in agriculture and industry. Invited meeting papers are complemented with other review papers resulting in a thorough overview of the status of all areas in phytochemistry.The Editor-in-Chief is Robert Verpoorte, Institute of Biology Leiden, The Netherlands.Phytochemistry Reviews now indexed in ISIWe are pleased to announce that the 2011 Impact Factor for Phytochemistry Reviews – the journal’s first – is 4.333.

The journal is ranked 17 of 190 in the category plant sciences.

Phytocoenologia publishes original papers in the fields of vegetation ecology. The journal covers all aspects of phytosociology in a comprehensive sense, i.e. including interactions between plant (and animal) organisms (coenological geobotany), the history and origin of phytocoenoses, vegetation dynamics, floristic and structural analysis of the plant cover (classification and ordination), fundamental environmental studies of plant ecosystems (synecology), pattern analyses from the ecosystem to the landscape level, and aspects of reproduction, dispersal and population biology in plant communities. The journal is open to methodological, theoretical, experimental and applied approaches. Phytocoenologia was founded in 1973 by R. Tüxen,The contributions should appeal to an international readership. Papers whose content is restricted to purely syntaxonomical and nomenclatural aspects or to local vegetation studies will not be accepted. Supraregional, synoptic views and comparative studies of vegetation types are welcome.Thematic issues devoted to current topics and special volumes (e.g., with selected contributions of I.A.V.S. and F.I.P.-Symposia) will also be considered for publication. .

Phytomedicine is published to attract and disseminate innovative and expert findings in the fields of phytopharmacology, phytotherapy and phytotoxicology, as a reference source for researchers in these fields, and with the aim to set international standards in their methodology.
