Journal of Genetics and Genomics
Journal of Genetics and Genomics (JGG), founded in 1974 and previously known as Acta Genetica Sinica, is an international journal publishing peer-reviewed articles of novel and significant discoveries in all areas of biology and biomedicine.JGG publishes papers reporting findings of general interest that provide significant insights into important biological processes in any living organisms, from microbes to plants, animals, and humans. The primary criterion for publication in JGG is whether the results report novel discoveries, mechanistic insights, or new technologies/tools and resources. In addition to research articles, we also publish reviews or opinion articles on recent cutting-edge studies and advances. We also welcome fast-track papers and presubmission inquiry.- ISSN: 1673-8527

Food Policy
Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies.Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership.Policy issues that are relevant to the journal include: • Food production, trade, marketing, and consumption • Nutrition and health aspects of food systems • Food needs, entitlements, security, and aid • Food safety and quality assurance • Technological and institutional innovation affecting food systems and access • Food systems and environmental sustainabilityConcep... and methodological articles should be written so that they are accessible to the journal's diverse international readership.
