About the journal
|
European Journal of Phycology is an important focus for the activities of phycologists all over the world. The Editors-in-Chief are assisted by an international team of Associate Editors who are experts in the following fields: macroalgal ecology, microalgal ecology, physiology and biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, macroalgal and microalgal systematics, applied phycology and biotechnology. European Journal of Phycology publishes papers on all aspects of algae, including cyanobacteria. Articles may be in the form of primary research papers, Miniviews, which present the author's viewpoint on important recent developments, or full length reviews of topical subjects. |
Instructions to Authors
European Journal of Phycology is an international joumal which publishes papers on all aspects of the
ecology, physiology, biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, systematics and uses of algae
(including cyanobacteria). The criterion for publication is scientific merit. Purely descriptive papers and
preliminary notes will not be accepted. Papers reporting new methods will not be considered unless they
include analysis of substantial data. Submitted manuscripts must not have been accepted for publication
or be under consideration elsewhere. It is the responsibility of authors to ensure that nothing in a
submitted manuscript would be in breach of any copyright agreement. On acceptance of a manuscript,
copyright is transferred to the journal.
EDITORIAL POLICY
Articles submitted for publication are independently reviewed by at least two referees, an Associate
Editor and the Editors-in-Chief. However, manuscripts that clearly do not meet the criteria for publication
may be rejected by the Edit ors-in-Chief and/or the Associate Editor concerned without being sent for review.
Acceptance or rejection of a manuscript is the responsibility of the Associate Editors and the Editors-in-Chief,
with the Editors-in-Chief assuming final responsibility. Accepted papers will normally be published in turn
according to the date of final acceptance, but the editors reserve the right to accelerate the progress of papers
meriting rapid publication. Within a given volume of EJP, preference may be given to authors who have not
already had a paper accepted for that volume. The manuscript must be prepared according to the
instructions which follow; those that do not conform or are incomplete may be returned for correction
prior to review.
THE MANUSCRIPT
Manuscripts may be submitted in the form of Research Reports , Miniviews , or Reviews and should be
submitted in triplicate to the appropriate Associate Editor (names and addresses inside front cover).
Authors preparing papers in excess of 16 journal pages should contact the Editors- in - Chief in the first
instance. It is essential that manuscripts are typewritten using double spacing throughout (including
references, tables and legends) on one side of A4 or quarto paper with margins of at least 3 cm all round.
Word processor-generated manuscripts must b e of good quality. Do not right-justify or divide words at
the ends of lines. The laser writer fonts Times, Courier or Helvetica (12 point) are preferred. Indicate
italics, e.g. for species names, foreign words and names of ships, by (underlining or) italics. All pages
should be numbered serially, with the first page a title page, the second an abstract, followed by the text,
references, tables, and legends for figures in that order. The text should normally be subdivided into six
sections: Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results (or Observations), Discussion, Acknowledgements
and References, although this may not be appropriate for some articles (such as some taxonomic papers).
Final versions of manuscripts should be supplied on a computer disk (in any major word processing
package) accompanying the hardcopy.
Indent the first line of paragraphs except after headings. In taxonomic papers, species names should be
followed by the authorities in full, e.g. (J. Smith) Setchell & Gardner, when first used, unless a large number
of names with authorities are grouped in a table. For other types of research, authorities for species names
are only necessary in Materials and Methods. SI (metric) units must be used. Leave a space between numerals
and their units (e.g. 10 mm). Abbreviations should be explained in words when first used. Symbols, units, and
nomenclature should conform to international usage. Non-English speakers should get the text checked if at
all possible, as the editors cannot always be expected t o carry out major linguistic revision.
Miniviews are short articles presenting the author's viewpoint on important recent developments in
phycology. Full length reviews are also published. See recent issues for style. Potential contributors of
miniviews and reviews are invited to consult the Editors-in-Chief before preparing a submission.
Research Reports should be prepared according to the following format:
1. The title page should have only the title, the name(s) and address(es) of the author(s), any necessary
footnotes, and a short running title suitable for page headings. If the name of an organism is used in the
title, an indication of its taxonomic position must be given. Nomenclatural authorities should only be used
in titles when nomenclatural changes are being proposed. Fax numbers and e-mail addresses will be
printed if included as footnotes on the title page. The address for correspondence and offprint requests
will be that of the first author unless otherwise indicated by means of a footnote.
2. The Abstract of not more than 300 words should be concise, informative and intelligible without
reference to the main text. It should indicate both the main results and the main conclusions of the paper.
Do not repeat information in the title or make reference to the literature. Authorities for species names
should be included in the Abstract for primarily taxonomic papers only. Key words: immediately
following the abstract, list 5 to 10 key words (alphabetically), separated by commas.
3. The Introduction should give the background to the study and the purpose of the investigation in
sufficient detail to introduce readers not expert in the particular area covered.
4. Materials and Methods. Include the species authorities (which can be found in checklists or culture
catalogues). If cultures are used, indicate the strain or clone number and source. For materials and
supplies not secured through major scientific supply companies, indicate the source. Use metric units; for
description of laboratory procedures, the terms litre (abbreviated to l) and millilitre (ml) may be used.
Values for light measurements should be given in mu mol m--2 s--1 or W m--2, and referred to as photon
irradiance or irradiance. Do not use dots or full-stops between parts of the term. Ensure that decimals are
given as 0.5 (not 0,5) both in text and axis labels.
5. Results Cite each figure and table in the text in order of presentation as far as possible. Names of new
taxa must be followed immediately by the Latin description or, preferably, diagnosis (using only essential
characters), with citation of holotype. For new combinations, basionyms should be cited in full.
6. The Discussion evaluates the significance of the results obtained in the context of the literature in this
area.
7. Acknowledgements should be given under a single heading at the end of the article.
8. References in the text are cited by author and publication date. Use ''&'' between pairs of authors; for
three or more authors, give the first author followed by ''et al.'' and the year. Multiple references must be
listed in chronological order (e.g. Joosten & van den Hoek, 1986; Breeman, 1988; Breeman et al., 1994a,
1994b). Only cite articles or books already published or in press, not unpublished work ''in preparation''.
In the list at the end of the paper, references should be typed double spaced in alphabetical order. Joumal
names and titles of books should be underlined or italicized. Include publishers and city of publication for
books. Abbreviations of journal names should follow the World List of Scientific Periodicals or the
selection Abbreviated Titles of Biological Journals issued by the Biological Council. References should
appear in the following style:
HARKER, M. YOUNG, A.J. (1995). Inhibition of astaxanthin synthesis in the green alga Haematococcus
pluvialis. Eur. J. Phycol., 30: 179-188.
BOLD, H. C. WYNNE, M.J. (1985). Introduction to the Algae, 2nd edition. Prentice-Hall, New Jersey.
SHEATH, R.G. HAMBROOK, J.A. (1990). Freshwater ecology. In Biology of the Red Algae (Cole, K.M.
Sheath, R.G., editors), 423-453. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge.
9. Tables should be numbered consecutively with arabic numerals, have a brief title at the top and be
referred to in the text. Each table should be typed, double-spaced throughout, on a separate numbered
page. Tables should not include vertical lines or shading -- if either is required the material must be
submitted as a figure for direct reproduction. Give each column a short heading. Place explanatory matter
in footnotes, not in the heading. Include in the footnotes all non-standard abbreviations used and enough
information for the table to be understood without undue recourse to the text. For footnote indicators use
lower-case letters (a, b, etc.).
10. Figures should be planned so that after reduction they will fit one column (8 cm) or two columns (17
cm) in width, and be no more than 25 cm in length. Allow sufficient space so that the legend can be
placed beneath the figure or group. A linear scale must be placed directly on each figure. Scale length
should be indicated on each figure directly above the scale (preferably) or in the legend. The author's
name and title of the paper should be written on the back of each figure or group of figures. Normally
only previously unpublished illustrations are acceptable. Figures should be numbered consecutively in
arabic numerals and referred to sequentially in the text (Fig. 1), (Figs 2, 3), (Figs 1-4), etc. Full page
groups of figures must not be referred to as plates with individual figures indicated by letters.
Legends for figures must be typed double-spaced on a separate page. Each legend should begin by
describing all the figures in a plate (e.g. Figs 3-7. Cell walls of Chlorella sp.) and provide enough
information for interpretation of the figure, with all abbreviations used. All terms, abbreviations, and
symbols should correspond with those used in the text. List scales at the end of the legend for each plate
as follows. Scale bars represent: Fig. 1, 20 mm; Figs 2-4, 50 nm.
Line drawings and diagrams should be large enough and with all lines, symbols and lettering bold
enough to permit 1/2 to 2/3 reduction in size. Computer-generated figures must be laser printed and
graphs with two vertical axes must have both labels running the same way. Problems with axis labelling
can usually be overcome by use of labels printed separately onto transparent sticky film (e.g. Transtext).
Letters and numerals, made neatly with transfer lettering, must not be more than 8 mm high or less than 2
mm high before reduction. Figure numbers should not be encircled. The originals and two good copies
are required.
Photographs (halftones) must have good contrast. Groups of photographs forming a single page should
be squared accurately and mounted with edges touching (butted) with no spaces between them. Plates can
be reduced in size during reproduction, but the quality will suffer if they have to be enlarged. The
individual photographs should be trimmed to show only essential features and of equal contrast to
facilitate printing. All numbers, letters, arrows and magnification scales must be inserted by the author
using black or white transfer lettering. Copies of photographic plates intended for reviewers must be of
photographic quality (photographs or laser copies).
Colour photographs (submitted as slides or as colour negatives) may be printed at the expense of the
author after consultation with the Editors- in - Chief. A colour plate fund is available to assist the publication
of colour plates where these are considered essential.
PAGE PROOFS
These will be emailed to the corresponding author directly from the typesetter, together with an offprint order
form, and copyright transfer form. Authors should pay particular attention to checking numerical material, tables,
lists of names, and figure captions and markings.The corrected proofs should be returned within 48 hours to the
Editors-in - Chief.
