PERSPECTIVES IN PLANT ECOLOGY EVOLUTION AND SYSTEMATICS
Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics is a young international journal which provides a platform for reviews and longer research articles in the fields of ecology, evolution and systematics of plants. The journal has been launched by the Rubel Foundation, a private trust associated with the Geobotanical Institute of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. The foundation looks back on a continued tradition of publishing for more than 70 years and is widely known and respected for a number of classic publications in European plant ecology and systematics.
The scope of Perspectives:
focus on the ecology, evolution and systematics of plants
informed perspective on themes of current interest and debate
Full length reviews
Essay reviews
Longer research articles
applied as well as pure science
both specialized and interdisciplinary themes.. |

Instructions to Authors
General information
The journal publishes articles of general interest to an international readership in the fields of plant ecology, evolution and sytematics. There are four issues per year. The following types of article will be considered:
Full length reviews
Essay reviews
Longer research articles.
To maintain high scientific standards manuscripts are submitted to two or more reviewers for evaluation of their scientific soundness and significance. Authors will be generally notified of acceptance, rejection, or need for revision of their manuscripts within three months.
Manuscripts should be addressed to the Managing Editor:

Copyright
Submission of a manuscript implies that the submitted work has not been published before (except as part of a thesis or lecture note or report, or in the form of an abstract); that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors as well as by the authorities at the institute where the work has been carried out; that written permission of copyright holders was obtained by the authors for material used from other copyrighted sources; that, if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors hand over the transferable copyrights of the accepted manuscript to the publisher; and that the manuscript or parts thereof will thus not be published elsewhere in any language without the consent of the copyright holder. Copyrights include, without spatial or timely limitation, the mechanical, electronic and visual reproduction and distribution; electronic storage and retrieval; and all other forms of electronic publication or any other types of publication including all subsidiary rights.
Preparation of Manuscripts
Manuscripts should be written in either British or American English. Four copies of the manuscript with all illustrations and tables should be submitted to the Managing Editor. Please, include your complete postal address and email address, and a cover letter that briefly describes why the enclosed work is of general interest to readers of PPEES.
All parts of the manuscript must be typed double-spaced, with margins of 2.5 cm (on either A4 or US format). The beginning of a paragraph should be indented. Manuscripts should not normally exceed 35 pages including all tables and figures. The abstract should not exceed 300 words and must be factual and fully comprehensible without reference to the text. Please provide up to six keywords or short phrases that are not included in the title.
Footnotes are discouraged; abbreviations and symbols must be defined when first mentioned. Generic and specific names should be written in italics. Give the full genus name and species authority on first mention only. Authors should use the International System of Units (SI System). If in doubt about form, contents or style of a review or research paper, you should consult a recent issue of PPEES or contact the Managing Editor.
A short Biosketch (50 words) describing the research interests of the corresponding author should be provided.
Tables and figures should be on separate sheets and their positions in the text should be indicated in pencil at the margin of the manuscript. Tables and figures should be numbered in arabic numerals and cited consecutively in the text. The contents of the tables should be fully explained by the headings. A high quality black and white copy of all figures should be submitted. Upon acceptance figures should also be provided in a disk version, if available. Figures should be large enough to permit reduction. Important points to note are: thickness of lines, size of inscriptions and symbols, adequate spacing of dotted and shaded areas. Photographs should be black and white, of high contrast and sharp. The scale should be indicated by a small bar. Inscriptions, marks and scale bars must be drawn in an appropriate size on the face of the illustrations. Plan all figures to suit a column width of 8,2 cm or a page width of 17 cm. The figure number, the desired reduction scale and the author's name should be written in pencil on the back. Authors will be charged for coloured figures (approx. EUR 450 per figure). Final versions of the figures should be submitted as eps- or tif-files at 240-300 dpi.
References: when quoting references in the text, "et al." should be used in the case of more than two authors. Several papers by the same author published in the same year should be distinguished in the text and in the list of references by a,b,c, etc. in the order quoted in the text. When papers are cited which were not published in a language using the Roman alphabet (e.g. Russian Cyrillic etc.), then the author, title and the periodical name itself must be transliterated using standards like ISO 1 or ISO 2 (cf. Nicolson 1981, Taxon 30: 168-183). The appropriate style of the references is shown in the following examples:
