About the journal
Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution is devoted to all aspects of plant genetic resources research. It publishes original articles in the fields of taxonomical, morphological, physiological, biochemical, genetical, cytological or ethnobotanical research of genetic resources and includes contributions to gene-bank management in a broad sense, that means to collecting, maintenance, evaluation, storage and documentation.
Areas of particular interest include:
- crop evolution
- domestication
- crop-weed relationships
- related wild species
- history of cultivated plants including palaeoethnobotany.
Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution also publishes short communications, e.g. newly described crop taxa, nomenclatural notes, reports of collecting missions, evaluation results of gene-bank material etc. as well as book reviews of important publications in the field of genetic resources.
Every volume will contain some review articles on actual problems. The journal is the internationalized continuation of the German periodical Die Kulturpflanze, published formerly by the Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research at Gatersleben, Germany.
All contributions are in the English language and are subject to peer reviewing.

Manuscripts should be written in standard English. Four copies should be submitted to the Editorial Office GRACE, Kluwer Academic Publishers, P.O. Box 990, 3300 AZ Dordrecht, The Netherlands. The author should retain the original and send good, clear, legible photocopies. Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced throughout on one side of DIN A4 paper (21 x 29 cm or 8.5 x 11 inch), with sufficiently wide margins (3-5 cm). All pages (including the tables, figures, legends and references) should be numbered consecutively. Notes on Underutilized and Rare Crops should not exceed 2 pages of printed text, including illustrations and references.
The manuscript should be arranged in the following order (typed cap. + lower case):
- Title (the title should be as short as possible, but should contain adequate information regarding the contents).
- Subtitle (this may be used to supplement and thereby shorten an excessively long main title).
- Author‘s full name (if more than one, use ?amp;?before the last name).
- Affiliation(s)/Address(es).
Key words/Abstract/Abbreviations (page 2)
- Key words (maximum of 6, in alphabetical order, suitable for indexing).
- Abstract (brief and informative, not to exceed 250 words).
- Abbreviations (arranged alphabetically, only those which are not familiar and/or commonly used).
Main text
- The relative importance of headings and subheadings should be clear. The approximate location of figures and tables should be indicated in the margin. New paragraphs should be indicated by clear indentation.
- The use of footnotes should be avoided. However, if essential, they should be typed on the appropriate pages, but clearly separated from the text with a line above them.
After the main text
Acknowledgements (also grants, support ect. if any) should follow the text and precede the references.
References
The literature references should be arranged alphabetically, typed double-spaced and in text referred to as: author and year of publication, e.g.: (Zohary, 1991; Kuz‘menko et al., 1989). Citations of personal communications and unpublished data should be avoided, unless absolutely necessary. Such citations should in text appear only as: (R.E. Brown, personal communication), and not in the reference list.
Abbreviate titles of periodicals according to the style of the Bibliographic Guide for Editors and Authors (Biosis, Chemical Abstract Service and Engineering Index, Inc., 1974).
Follow the style shown below:

Books (identical author and editor)
Terrell, E.E., St.R. Hill, J.H. Wiersema & W.E. Rice, 1986. A Checklist of Names for 3,000 Vascular Plants of Economic Importance. United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Agriculture Handbook Number 505.
Tables
- Each table should be typed on a separate page.
- Tables should be numbered with arabic numerals, followed by the title. Horizontal rules should be indicated; vertical rules should not be used. Table-footnotes should be marked with superscript letters.
- Each table should be mentioned in the text.
- Tables may be edited by the publisher to permit more compact typesetting.
Figures
- Each figure should be mentioned in the text.
- Line drawings should be in a form suitable for reproduction without modification. Extremely small type should be avoided as figures are often reduced in size.
- Photographs should be supplied as black-and-white, high-contrast glossy prints. Colour plates may be inserted at the author‘s own expense.
- Figures as well as legends should be identified by arabic numbers.
Where multi-part figures are used, each part should be clearly identified in the legend, preferably with (lower case) letters.
- The top of the figure should be indicated on the back. Figures which need to be placed landscape should be avoided if possible.
- Identify each illustration, on the back, by lightly writing author‘s name and figure number.
Nomenclature
Taxonomical
- Scientific names of organisms should follow the International Rules of the "International Code of Botanical Nomenclature" (Regnum Vegetabile vol. 118, 1988) and the "International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants" (Regnum Vegetabile vol. 104, 1980).
- Names of species and infraspecific entities are printed in italics and must be underlined. These names should be followed by their author names when mentioned for the first time. Author names (also from references) are printed generally in normal letters. For their abbreviations one should compare the "Draft Index of Author Abbreviations complied at the Herbarium Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew" (Kew 1980).
- Names of genera and higher taxa may be used without authorities.
- Names of cultivars must be preceded by the abbreviation cv. or set into single quotation marks (cv. Blue Star or ’Blue Star?.
Genetic
Applications of terms should follow the "Glossary of Genetics", 5th ed., by Rieger, R., A. Michaelis & M.M. Green (Springer Verlag, Berlin- Heidelberg-New York, 1991), this includes a list of common abbreviations of genetic terms.
Chemical and biochemical
- Names of chemical compounds follow the Chemical Abstracts (Chemical Abstract Service, Ohio State University, Columbus) and its indexes.
- Biochemical terminology, including abbreviations and symbols, follows the recommendations of the SUPAC-IUB Commission of Biochemical Nomenclature.
- Enzyme activity in units following the Enzyme Nomenclature (Academic Press, 1979). For summaries of the abbreviations consult Journal of Biological Chemistry, Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics and the Handbook of Biochemistry (H.A. Sober, Chemical Rubber Company, Cleveland, latest edition).
Abbreviations and units
Only SI units and abbreviations should be used. Abbreviations should be explained when they first appear in the text.
If a non-standard abbreviation is to be used extensively, it should be defined in full on page 2 as mentioned above. Whenever in doubt use SI (System International) units.
