Experimental Parasitology

ISSN: 0014-4894
5 Year impact factor: 1.6
Impact factor: 1.4

The main focus of Experimental Parasitology is experimental approaches to investigating different aspects of parasitology, including, but not limited to, those encompassed by molecular tools, cell biology, and immunology. The journal predominantly publishes Original Research Papers in which experimentation is used to investigate the physiological, metabolic, immunological, biochemical, nutritional, and chemotherapeutic aspects of parasites and host-parasite relationships. In addition, the journal welcomes Method Papers that describe new approaches to such investigations and Review Articles (short reviews, full reviews, and systematic reviews) that provide critical evaluation of published articles on a theme within the scope of the journal. Furthermore, the journal is open to publishing special issues or meeting reports within the themes of the journal. Please contact the editors for further information. See our Guide for Authors for further information on the different paper types accepted by Experimental Parasitology.

Fungal Biology Reviews is an international journal published by the British Mycological Society (est. in 1896), providing a comprehensive platform for high-quality scientific review articles aiming to cover all aspects of fungal biology. Encompassing both fundamental and applied research, the journal welcomes a wide range of areas of research, including fungal diversity, ecology, fitness, evolution, physiology and biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, cell biology, developmental biology, reproduction and interactions such as symbiosis and pathogenesis. It also looks forward to publishing overviews of methodological aspects of fungal biology, for example, fungal genomics and other high-throughput -omic techniques.Fungal Biology Reviews embraces the study of the kingdom of Fungi and diverse organisms that were recognized as fungi, including lichens, microsporidia, and fungi-like protozoans, such as Oomycetes (water molds) or Myxomycetes (slime molds). We welcome submissions based on the canonical model fungi such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Aspergillus nidulans, and Neurospora crassa, and are open to other and newly emerging experimental systems. The journal would like to become a podium where views on fungal biology or new hypotheses in fungal biology are shared in so-called opinion papers.We are ready to consider reviews on plant pathology (and the study of endo- and epiphytes), the rhizosphere, bulk soil microbiology, the impact of climate change, as well as mutualistic and parasitic interactions. We are interested in geomycology, dispersal strategies and adaptations, hyphal and spore biomechanics, and biophysics.Additiona... Fungal Biology Reviews aims to explore topics dealing with all aspects of biotechnology, encompassing novel molecules and products, including the use of fungi for the biological control of pests (biofungicides) and plant growth promotion (biofertilizers), bioremediation, biomineralization, fungal materials, fermentation, fungal cell factories, mycoprotein, fungi for food, medicinal fungi, biodegradation.Final... the Journal would like to summarize the developments concerning clinical mycology, drug resistance, and antimicrobial compounds, as well as other hazards such as food spoilage and the production of mycotoxins.
