Journals in Microbiology and virology
Elsevier's Microbiology & Virology collection provides comprehensive coverage of viruses and microorganisms, addressing their impact on human, animal, and plant health. It includes topics such as prevention, treatment, and research of viral diseases like coronaviruses, flaviviruses, and viral hemorrhagic fevers. The collection delves into fields like Bacteriology, Mycology, and Microbial genetics, focusing on their roles in environmental, agricultural, and health-related contexts. This resource serves as a vital tool for scientists, facilitating the study of viruses and microorganisms and enabling the development of effective strategies for infectious disease prevention, diagnosis, and control.

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology
An International Journal of Comparative ImmunologyThe journal reports basic, comparative and clinical immunology as they pertain to the animal species designated here: livestock, poultry, and fish species that are major food animals and companion animals such as cats, dogs, horses and camels, and wildlife species that act as reservoirs for food, companion or human infectious diseases, or as models for human disease.Rodent models of infectious diseases that are of importance in the animal species indicated above,when the disease requires a level of containment that is not readily available for larger animal experimentation (ABSL3), will be considered. Papers on rabbits, lizards, guinea pigs, badgers, armadillos, elephants, antelope, and buffalo will be reviewed if the research advances our fundamental understanding of immunology, or if they act as a reservoir of infectious disease for the primary animal species designated above, or for humans. Manuscripts employing other species will be reviewed if justified as fitting into the categories above.The following topics are appropriate: biology of cells and mechanisms of the immune system, immunochemistry, immunodeficiencies, immunodiagnosis, immunogenetics, immunopathology, immunology of infectious disease and tumors, immunoprophylaxis including vaccine development and delivery, immunological aspects of pregnancy including passive immunity, autoimmuity, neuroimmunology, and transplanatation immunology. Manuscripts that describe new genes and development of tools such as monoclonal antibodies are also of interest when part of a larger biological study. Studies employing extracts or constituents (plant extracts, feed additives or microbiome) must be sufficiently defined to be reproduced in other laboratories and also provide evidence for possible mechanisms and not simply show an effect on the immune system.Ideas and suggestions for Special Issues are also welcome. These may focus on a planned conference/symposium for which a selection of the best papers could be published together (after peer review). Alternatively, they could consist of a group of invited papers which together present an up-to-date overview on an important immunological topic.

Veterinary Microbiology
Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with bacterial and viral diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, but excluding fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. Authors are strongly encouraged to read - prior to submission - the Editorials ('Scope or cope' and 'Scope or cope II') published previously in the journal. The Editors reserve the right to suggest submission to another journal for those papers which they feel would be more appropriate for consideration by that journal.Original research papers of high quality and novelty on aspects of control, host response, molecular biology, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of microbial diseases of animals are published. Papers dealing primarily with immunology, epidemiology, molecular biology and antiviral or microbial agents will only be considered if they demonstrate a clear impact on a disease. Papers focusing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique. Papers only reporting microbial sequences, metagenomics data, transcriptomics data, or proteomics data will not be considered unless the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge related to microbial disease.Drug trial papers will be considered if they have general application or significance. Papers on the identification of microorganisms will also be considered, but detailed taxonomic studies do not fall within the scope of the journal. Case reports will not be published, unless they have general application or contain novel aspects. Papers of geographically limited interest, which repeat what had been established elsewhere will not be considered. The readership of the journal is global.Papers will be rejected if standards of care of, or procedures performed on animals are not up to those expected of humane veterinary scientists. At a minimum, standards must meet the International Guiding Principles for Biomedical Research involving Animals, as issued by the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences.

Fungal Biology Reviews
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.
