The Journal of Natural Pesticide Research publishes original articles on current research in any aspects of natural pesticides including botanical, microbial (including bacteria, fungi and virus), entomopathogenic nematodes and other naturally occurring material.The Editors of Journal of Natural Pesticide Research especially welcome papers describing an interdisciplinary approach showing how different naturally occurring living and non-living things can be integrated into practical pesticide programs, covering high and low input agricultural, forestry and environmental systems in the globe. Journal of Natural Pesticide Research particularly emphasizes the practical aspects of eco-friendly pesticide in the field and includes work which may lead in the near future to the development of environmental-soft pesticide. The journal does not duplicate the many existing excellent pesticide, insecticide and toxicology journals, which deal mainly with the more fundamental aspects of pesticide, insecticide and fungicide.Journal of Natural Pesticide Research covers all practical aspects of natural pesticide, including the following topics:Biochemical pesticidesBotanical insecticideSecondary metabolitesPlant-incorporated protectantsBacterial toxinFungal toxinVirus including Cytoplasmic Polyhedrosis Viruses and Nuclear Polyhedrosis VirusEntomopathogenic nematodesEntomopathogenic protozoa and spiroplasmaGenetically Modified Crops, and genetic engineering applicationsMolecular technic in biorational pesticide including RNA interference.All submitted manuscripts will be subject to a thorough peer-reviewing process.
Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology provides an International forum for original research papers, reviews, and commentaries on all aspects of the molecular biology, biochemistry, physiology, histology and cytology, genetics and evolution of plant-microbe interactions.Papers on all kinds of infective pathogen, including viruses, prokaryotes, fungi, and nematodes, as well as mutualistic organisms such as Rhizobium and mycorrhyzal fungi, are acceptable as long as they have a bearing on the interaction between pathogen and plant.Research Areas Include:• Recognition in plant immunity • Cell biology of plant-microbe interactions • Plant molecular defense responses, including transcriptome, proteome, miRNA profiling, metabolome • Mechanisms of specific resistance, induced resistance and non-host -resistance • Plant hormones and regulators in plant-microbe interactions • Molecular biology of phytoalexins and other secondary metabolites of the host and their roles in resistance • Pathogen effectors involved in pathogenicity and interaction with the host • Pathogen infection mechanisms and host defense suppression • Novel approaches for disease control • Induction of plant immunity and biotechnology of resistance • Pathogen molecular diagnostic.
