Submission guidelines

Instructions for authors

Australasian Plant Pathology

only accepts articles in English, based upon original, non-previously published data, regardless if the data were previously published in a language other than English.

Any new pathogen records for Australia and New Zealand must be reported to authorities before they can be published.

Please consult the relevant website for details prior to submission of manuscript.

For Australia

For New Zealand

Types of Articles Published

Research Papers

Australasian Plant Pathology welcomes the submission of research papers describing significant high quality research in plant pathology. Research papers should not exceed 20 pages of printed text including Tables, Figures and References (1 page of printed text is approx 600 words).

Research Notes

Research Notes are for publication of results that although they are insufficient to form a full paper are nonetheless deserving of publication. For example, descriptions of new methods, molecular data useful for typing pathogens short descriptions of genes isolated from pathogens and pest organisms, or of plant genes with a putative function in plant-pathogen interactions Research Notes should contain firm data and will be refereed. Research Notes are not divided into sections as are research articles, the only heading is for the Abstract. Leave a blank line between the Abstract and the rest of the text. The rest of the text is merged into one continuous section. Research Notes should not exceed four pages of printed text including the Abstract (1 page is printed text is approx 600 words). They would usually contain one Table or Figure. However supplementary information can be provided on the web.

Reviews

Reviews should summarise the present knowledge in a certain field and should be focused around an attractive question of research rather than simply being a repository of all studies in a field. The most important criteria are that reviews are of interest to a wider audience and/or make a wide audience aware of novel and interesting aspects. Reviews should not be longer than ten pages of printed text; one page of printed text = approximately 600 words). Authors interested in writing a review are encouraged to discuss their ideas with the Editor-in-Chief before commencing to write the review.

Obituaries

Obituaries to commemorate prominent plant pathologists who have passed away are published in the journal. They should be written by a colleague who has been closely associated with the deceased and is familiar with their work. The obituary should highlight their contribution to plant pathology. Obituaries should not be longer than two printed pages and may contain a photograph.

Disease Notes

First records of a disease, or notes on changes in the geographical distribution of diseases are referred to our companion online journal Australasian Plant Disease Notes for publication.

Australasian Plant Disease Notes

Emerging Plant Pathogens

In many countries it is a requirement for information about emerging plant pathogens, to be reported to government or local authorities before publication. It is the responsibility of the author to comply with such requirements.

Manuscript Submission

Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation.

Permissions

Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner(s) for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers. Any material received without such evidence will be assumed to originate from the authors.

Online Submission

Please follow the hyperlink “Submit manuscript” on the right and upload all of your manuscript files following the instructions given on the screen.

Please ensure you provide all relevant editable source files. Failing to submit these source files might cause unnecessary delays in the review and production process.

Reviewers

During the submission process you are required to nominate four reviewers who are able to review your manuscript. Note that the editor retains the sole right to decide whether or not the suggested reviewers are used. In the event that the editor considers your suggested reviewers to be inappropriate you may be asked to suggest additional reviewers. This may delay the review process. Alternatively the editor may decide to select reviewers for your paper. Authors can also request that certain individuals should not review the manuscript.

Text

Text Formatting

Manuscripts should be submitted in Word.

Use a normal, plain font (e.g., 10-point Times Roman) for text.

Use italics for emphasis.

Use the automatic page numbering function to number the pages.

Do not use field functions.

Use tab stops or other commands for indents, not the space bar.

Use the table function, not spreadsheets, to make tables.

Use the equation editor or MathType for equations.

Save your file in docx format (Word 2007 or higher) or doc format (older Word versions).

Manuscripts with mathematical content can also be submitted in LaTeX.

LaTeX macro package (Download zip, 190 kB)

Headings

Please use no more than three levels of displayed headings.

Abbreviations

Abbreviations should be defined at first mention and used consistently thereafter.

Footnotes

Footnotes can be used to give additional information, which may include the citation of a reference included in the reference list. They should not consist solely of a reference citation, and they should never include the bibliographic details of a reference. They should also not contain any figures or tables.

Footnotes to the text are numbered consecutively; those to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other statistical data). Footnotes to the title or the authors of the article are not given reference symbols.

Always use footnotes instead of endnotes.

Acknowledgments

Acknowledgments of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section on the title page. The names of funding organizations should be written in full.

Preparing the Manuscript

Structure of the manuscript

Research Papers are divided into the following sections:

1. Abstract

2. Additional Keywords

3. Introduction

4. Materials and Methods

5. Results

6. Discussion (the results and Discussion must be separate sections. Manuscript with combined Results and Discussion will not be accepted.)

7. Acknowledgment

8. References.

Title page

• Title informative and not more than 30 words

• Authors listed with first names as initials only (preceding the name)

• Addresses at which the work was carried out follow the names

• Author for correspondence indicated by an asterisk with an e-mail address provided (one author only)

• Short title of no more than 60 characters (including spaces) at the top of the page

• Key words - provide up to 6

Abstract

• Indicate why and how the work was done, the result and conclusions

• 250 words or less

• Abstracts should not be unnecessarily descriptive and must, where appropriate, contain quantitative data.

• They should not contain abbreviations or reference citations.

Introduction

• Describe, succinctly, the current state of work in the relevant field

• Describe the reasons for carrying out the experiments

• Give a clear statement of the objectives and hypotheses being tested.

• The Introduction should emphasise the significance of the work and make a case as to why it should be published.

Materials and methods

• Sufficient information must be given in this section to allow the reader to understand the experimental design and statistical methods used in the data analysis. All experiments should have adequate replication and, should have been repeated for confirmation.

• Where methods used have been described in a previous publication simply cite the publication rather than reproducing the description of the method.

• Système International (SI) units are preferred. Others should be related to SI units at the first mention.

• Commercial equipment and products used in experiments should name the product and company location.

• State the methods used e.g. analysis of variance (ANOVA), or mixed models and ensure that the analysis method chosen is appropriate for the data. Data tables presenting, for example, mean values should include the appropriate standard errors (SE) and degrees of freedom (DF) relevant to the SE. Where comparisons are made between data values care should be taken to ensure that the SE values quoted are suitable for the comparisons. Indiscriminate use of multiple range tests should be avoided.

• Molecular marker data need to be properly replicated using appropriate positive and negative controls and provide an assessment of error rates based on independent DNA extractions.

Results

• The data presentation should follow a logical flow starting with a short description of the incentive of the experiment, followed by a description of the results. Do not repeat information on the experimental details; those belong to Materials and Methods. Describe the data, but interpretations and conclusions should be given in the Discussion. Papers with combined Results and Discussion sections will not be accepted.

• Make use of tables and figures where necessary and without duplication.

• Data should be presented as Figures or Tables but not both.

Discussion

• Focus on the work presented and its relationship with other relevant published work

• It should not digress widely into general discussion of a research area, or into excessive speculation,.

Acknowledgements

• All sources of funding should be listed (see Conflict of Interest below).

• Colleagues who contributed through helpful discussion, or review of the paper should also be acknowledged.

General Style for all manuscripts

1. Typed with double spacing throughout.

2. Typescript should be font Times 12 point size.

3. Continuous line numbers must be used throughout.

4. Pages to be numbered consecutively including those carrying Tables and Figure Captions.

5. There must be a 3 cm margin on the left hand side of each page.

6. Author(s) names to be listed under the title.

7. Institutional affiliations and addresses for each author to be listed beneath the author list.

8. Corresponding authors name and email address listed before the abstract.

9. Abstract limited to 250 words.
