About the journal
The Journal of Plant Pathology is the international continuation of the RIVISTA DI PATOLOGIA VEGETALE, the second oldest phytopathological journal in the world, established in 1892. JPP is published quarterly.
The aim of the Journal of Plant Pathology (JPP), an international journal of the Italian Phytopathological Society, is to publish results of research on fundamental and applied aspects of plant pathology. Contributions in the field of mycology, bacteriology, virology, physiological plant pathology, plant-parasite interactions, post harvest diseases, non infectious diseases, and plant protection are welcome. Articles on pesticide screening are not usually accepted.
Instructions to Authors
Editorial Policy
JPP is open to publication of papers by members and non-members of the Italian Phytopathological Society. Manuscripts submitted for publication will be considered on the assumption that the same or similar work has not been nor will be published elsewhere. Accepted papers become copyright of the Journal.
There is no page charge (except for colour plates) and the authors will receive 25 offprints free of charge.
Submission of papers
Three sets of the manuscript and figures should be sent to the Managing Editor, Journal of Plant Pathology, Dipartimento di Protezione delle Piante e Microbiologia Applicata, Via Amendola 165/A - 70126 Bari - Italy.
Tel. +39.080.5443052 - Fax: +39.080.5442911; E-mail: faretra@uniba.it
The name and address of the corresponding author should be indicated.
Processing of papers
All papers will be peer reviewed by two or more referees. After preliminary examination by Senior Editors to ascertain if they are within the scope of the Journal, submitted papers will be assigned to Associate Editors for further processing. Papers will be accepted by Senior Editors acting upon the advice of Associate Editors. In any case, authors are responsible for the scientific content of their papers.
Types of papers
The JPP welcomes:
Standard 'full-length' papers. As a rule, these should not exceed 15 typewritten pages (400 words per page) and contain no more than ten tables and figures combined. Standard papers are divided into the following sections:
Title; Name(s), affiliation(s), and address(es) of the author(s); Summary; Key words (not exceeding five); Running title (a condensed version of the title); Introduction; Materials and Methods; Results; Discussion; Acknowledgements; References. Some flexibility in layout is allowed for papers that cannot be presented in conventional form. For instance, a combined Results and Discussion section is permitted.
Short communications. These are intended for reporting brief complete pieces of work, not for preliminary results. Short communications should not exceed six typewritten pages, and contain no more than six tables and figures combined.
The text is not divided into sections, except for a short Summary (100 words), Acknowledgements, and References.

The text is not divided into sections, except for a short Summary (100 words), Acknowledgements, and References.
Disease notes. These are intended for new or unusual records in abstract form, with one or two references. Their length should not exceed 200 words.
Review papers. As a rule, review articles on specific subjects are invited. Unsolicited reviews may be considered, but the authors should contact the Editor-in-Chief in advance.
Format
All papers must be written in English, as concisely as possible.
Manuscripts should be typed on one side of A4 paper with double spacing and wide margins. The International System of units (SI) must be adopted for all numerical data. Whenever abbreviations are to be used, the names should be given initially in full with the abbreviation in parentheses, e.g. polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The CBE Style Manual, Council of Biology Editors, Inc. Bethesda, MD, USA is recommended as a reference for style and conventions.
Literature citations in the text should be in parentheses, giving the author's name and date and using et al., when the number of authors exceed two [e.g. (Smith, 1994); (Smith and Pearson, 1991); (Smith et al., 1995)]. Citations of personal communications and unpublished data are allowed, but only when strictly necessary. References must be listed in alphabetical order and written in the following formats according to whether they are from:

Illustrations
(photographs and graphs) should be separated from the text and numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals, in the order in which they are referred to in the text. Glossy prints of photographs can be sent unmounted or cropped into a table when suitable. Slides can be supplied for colour pictures, which will be reproduced at the author's expenses. Authors are advised to contact the Managing Editor for an estimate of the cost. Graphs must be drawn in black on good quality white or transparent paper. Lettering on the illustrations should be of a size sufficient to allow for reduction, if necessary. Magnifications must be indicated on the pictures by scale bars.
Illustrations should report the name of the first author and the figure number, together with the indication of the top. Legends to the figures should be typed on a separate sheet. Tables should also be typed on a separate page, with their own caption, and numbered progressively using Arabic numerals. Captions of illustrations and tables must be clear, concise and self-explanatory.
After processing and acceptance of the paper, the authors are expected to supply a hard copy of the revised manuscript and a diskette. Corrections of proofs will be restricted to printer's errors only. Substantial alterations will be charged to the author.
Offprints
Twenty-five offprints are provided free of charge. Additional copies may be ordered at prices quoted in the form accompanying the proofs.
