Molecular Breeding

Journal Title：Molecular Breeding

Molecular Breeding is an international journal publishing papers on applications of plant molecular biology, i.e., research most likely leading to practical applications. The practical applications might relate to the Developing as well as the industrialised World and have demonstrable benefits for the seed industry, farmers, processing industry, the environment and the consumer.

All papers published should contribute to the understanding and progress of modern plant breeding, encompassing the scientific disciplines of molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, physiology, pathology, plant breeding, and ecology among others.

Molecular Breeding welcomes the following categories of papers: full papers, short communications, papers describing novel methods and review papers. All submission will be subject to peer review ensuring the highest possible scientific quality standards.

Molecular Breeding core areas:

Molecular Breeding will consider manuscripts describing contemporary methods of molecular genetics and genomic analysis, structural and functional genomics in crops, proteomics and metabolic profiling, abiotic stress and field evaluation of transgenic crops containing particular traits. Manuscripts on marker assisted breeding are also of major interest, in particular novel approaches and new results of marker assisted breeding, QTL cloning, integration of conventional and marker assisted breeding, and QTL studies in crop plants.

《分子育种》是一本国际期刊，发表有关植物分子生物学应用的论文，即最有可能产生实际应用的研究。实际应用可能涉及发展中国家和工业化国家，对种子行业、农民、加工业、环境和消费者都有明显的好处。

发表的所有论文都应有助于理解和推进现代植物育种，涵盖分子生物学、生物化学、遗传学、生理学、病理学、植物育种和生态学等科学学科。

《分子育种》欢迎以下类别的论文：全文、短文、描述新方法的论文和评论论文。所有投稿都将接受同行评审，以确保达到最高的科学质量标准。

分子育种核心领域：

分子育种将考虑描述分子遗传学和基因组分析的当代方法、作物的结构和功能基因组学、蛋白质组学和代谢分析、非生物胁迫和含有特定性状的转基因作物的田间评估的稿件。关于标记辅助育种的稿件也备受关注，特别是标记辅助育种的新方法和新成果、QTL 克隆、传统和标记辅助育种的整合以及作物中的 QTL 研究。

Molecular Breeding创刊于1995年，由Springer Netherlands出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖农林科学 - 农艺学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度 约1.5月 ，影响因子指数2.6，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
