About the journal
|
Journal of Plant Growth Regulation is an international journal publishing original articles on all aspects of plant growth and development. We welcome manuscripts reporting question-based research using hormonal, physiological, environmental, genetical, biophysical, developmental or molecular approaches to the study of plant growth regulation. Beginning in 2000, each issue of the journal will be thematic, containing papers solicited by a guest editor on various aspects of growth and development, in addition to contributed papers on any topic. |

Instructions to Authors
Form of Manuscript
Papers must be clearly and concisely written in correct English; this is the responsibility of the authors. The entire manuscript should be double-spaced and lines numbered. Every page should be numbered. The elements of the paper should be presented in the following sequence:
TITLE with a shortened version for page headings that does not exceed 40 characters.
Complete AUTHOR NAMES for each author, plus their mailing address and institutional affiliation. Include phone/FAX numbers and an E-mail address for the corresponding author.
ABSTRACT of up to 250 words that highlights the objectives, results, and conclusions of the paper.
KEY WORDS (6 to 10), to identify the subjects under which the article may be indexed.
TEXT of the manuscript: Subheadings should be used as appropiate.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: Individuals who were of direct help to the authors and any sources of financial support should be acknowledged in a brief statement.
REFERENCES
APPENDICES (optional) Each appendix must have a title.
FIGURES should be on separate pages (not embedded in the text)
FIGURE LEGENDS should be on a separate page and numbered consecutively to correspond with the figures. Every figure must be cited in the text.
TABLES should be on separate pages. Tables should have a clear and rational structure. All tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals. Every table must be cited in the text. Tables should be designed to fit a space no larger then the full-page width of 16.9 cm. Footnotes to tables should be indicated by lower-case superscript letters, beginning with superscript a for each new table.
TABLE LEGENDS should be on the same page as the table they correspond to. Provide enough information in legends so that each table is understandable without reference to the text.
Style Manual
Guidelines for references, symbols, abbreviations, units of measurement, and so on may be found in Council of Biology Editors 1994 Scientific style and format: The CBE manual for authors, editors, and publishers. 6th ed. New York: Cambridge University Press. 825 p.
Footnotes: These should not be used; information should be integrated into the text.
Metric System: The metric system should be used throughout. If required, equivalent values in other systems may be placed in parantheses immediately after the metric value.
Mathematical Symbols: Marginal notes to the copy editor should be used to explain mathematical sysbols used in text
Illustrations: Illustrations should be of high quality (i.e., professionally drawn or generated by graphics software). Hard copies of figures must be submitted in duplicate with the final manuscript. Each figure must be labeled on its back, indicating figure number, author name, and an indication of the top of the figure where necessary. Figures should be submitted at their final size. Submit figures as .eps or.tif files, in addition to hard copies.
Color illustrations: Color may be used without charge for the electronic edition of the journal, but will appear in the printed version of the journal at the author's expense: $1150 for one page, and $575 per page for additional pages within the same article. If color is essential to the article and funding is unavailable, please contact the Editorial Office before submitting the manuscript for consideration.
References: Only essential references should be used, and only references cited in the article should appear in the Reference List. When citing works by more than two authors in the text, only the first author should be named, followed by "and others". Responsibility for the accuracy of the references rests with the author. "In press" citations must include the name of the journal that has accepted the paper. For specific guidelines on the reference style, see Preparing a 'Reference List.'
Electronic Submissions: Authors should submit their final, revised manuscripts on diskettes, along with two paper copies of the final manuscript and all figures. The files must correspond exactly to the accepted manuscript. Submit word processing files in Microsoft Word, Wordperfect or other widely-used software. Label diskettes with the article title, author, file, and software names.
Proofs and Reprints: Proofs and a reprint order form are sent to the first author unless the Editorial Office is advised otherwise. Authors will be notified via email when proofs are available online (with instructions on where to return proofs). At that time, authors will be able to download a Reprint Order Form and order reprints at cost.
Copyright: Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before (except in the form of an abstract,or as part of a published lecture, review, or thesis); that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors;that, if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors agree to transfer the copyright to the publisher; that the manuscript will not be published elsewhere without the consent of the copyright holder; that written permission of the copyright holder is obtained by the authors for the material used from other copyrighted sources; and that any costs associated with obtaining this permission are the responsibility of the authors.
Guidelines for Preparing a Reference List: Double space the list. Check the text citations against the Reference List to make sure there are no gaps or inconsistencies. Names of journals should be abbreviated according to the Bibliographic Guide for Editors & Authors (The American Chemical Society, Washington D.C.). Do not include abstracts or unpublished material in the Reference List. Instead, cite them in the text as Personal Observations, Personal Communications, or Unpublished Data/Unpublished Manuscript. Identify authors of unpublished work. Use the following formats for the Reference List style:

Vanderhoef LN, Dute RR. 1981. Auxin regulated wall loosening and sustained growth in elongation. Plant Physiol 67:146-149.
Article in edited book

Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for Print
General
Send illustrations separately from the text (i.e. files should not be integrated with the text files). Always send printouts of all illustrations.
Vector (line) Graphics
Vector graphics exported from a drawing program should be stored in EPS format.
Suitable drawing program: Adobe Illustrator. For simple line art the following drawing programs are also acceptable: Corel Draw, Freehand, Canvas.
No rules narrower than .25 pt.
No gray screens paler than 15% or darker than 60%.
Screens meant to be differentiated from one another must differ by at least 15%.
Spreadsheet/Presentation Graphics
Most presentation programs (Excel, PowerPoint, Freelance) produce data that cannot be stored in an EPS format. Therefore graphics produced by these programs cannot be used for print.
Halftone Illustrations
Black & white and color illustrations should be saved in TIFF format.
Illustrations should be created using Adobe Photoshop whenever possible.
Scans*
Scanned reproductions of black and white photographs should be provided as 300 ppi TIFF files.
Scanned color illustrations should be provided as TIFF files scanned at a minimum of 300 ppi with a 24-bit color depth.
Line art should be provided as TIFF files at 600 ppi.
* We do prefer having the original art as our printers have drum scanners which allow for better reproduction of critical medical halftones.
Graphics from Videos
Separate files should be prepared for frames from a video that are to be printed in the journal. When preparing these files you should follow the same rules as listed under Halftone Illustrations.
Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for ONLINE
Video
Quicktime (.mov) is the preferred format, but .rm, .avi, .mpg, etc. are acceptable.
No video file should be larger than 2MB. To decrease the size of your file, consider changing one or more of the following variables: frame speed, number of colors/greys, viewing size (in pixels), or compression. Video is subject to Editorial review and approval
