Instructions to Authors
CYTOLOGIA, an international journal of cytogenetics and cell biology, is open to all original contributions in the field of cytology of plants and animals, covering cytomorphology, cytophysiology, physical chemistry of cells and cell constituents, genetic studies of cytological events, research on cells and cell constituents under living and fixed conditions, serology, vital staining, biochemistry and biophysics of cells and tissues, electron microscopy, microdissection, tissue culture, molecular cell biology, microtechniques, and all other research methods. The quality of manuscripts is judged by expert reviewers, and manuscripts are also reviewed by editors or advisory panels.
CYTOLOGIA is issued in one volume with four numbers annually.
