Tropical Plant Biology covers the most rapidly advancing aspects of tropical plant biology including physiology, evolution, development, cellular and molecular biology, genetics, genomics, genomic ecology, and molecular breeding. It publishes articles of original research, but it also accepts review articles and publishes occasional special issues focused on a single tropical crop species or breakthrough. Information published in this journal guides effort to increase the productivity and quality of tropical plants and preserve the world’s plant diversity. The journal serves as the primary source of newly published information for researchers and professionals in all of the aforementioned areas of tropical science.

Vegetation History and Archaeobotany publishes research papers, review articles and short contributions of high quality from Europe, the Americas and around the world. It covers the entire field of vegetation history, exploring the development of flora and vegetation during the Holocene (and also the Pleistocene) era, and includes related subjects such as palaeoecology. The journal places interest on human impact upon the natural environment in prehistoric and medieval times. This is reflected in pollen diagrams as well as in plant macroremains from archaeological contexts. Recent topics have included vegetation, fire and climate dynamics as indicated by pollen and charcoal analysis; preliminary results from a dendroecological study of a sub-fossil pine woodland in NW Germany; the significance of low pollen accumulation rates in estimation tree population, and more. The Editor-in-Chief is Felix Bittmann, Niedersächsisches Insitut für historische Küstenforschung, Wilhelmshaven, Germany.

The journal “ Webbia ” was founded in 1905 in Florence by Ugolino Martelli (1860-1934), a botanist well known for his studies of and contributions to the systematics of the tropical genus Pandanus and our knowledge of the Flora of Sardinia.In the XIX century Florence represented one of the most important European centres in Systematics and Phytogeography with several notable Italian botanists worth mentioning such as Filippo Parlatore, Teodoro Caruel, Eugenio Baroni, Stefano Sommier, Odoardo Beccari and Ugolino Martelli himself. Since 1842 Florence has been become the place where one of the most important herbaria of the world, was created: the Herbarium Centrale Italicum (FI). The herbarium was established by Filippo Parlatore (1816-1877), and most of the specimens described and/or cited in Webbia are still kept in it.In 1905, and as a consequence of this multitude of activities in Plant Systematics and Phytogeography, Ugolino Martelli established the journal Webbia - Raccolta di Scritti Botanici, firstly published annually in a single issue, and later twice a year.Webbia had been created in honor of Philip Barker Webb (1793-1845), a deep friend of Filippo Parlatore, who before passing away entrusted his personal herbarium and a library rich of old botanical books and publications to the Botanical Museum in Florence.Between 1905 and 1923 Webbia was irregularly published in 5 volumes of 7 issues and its publication stopped after the death its first developers, U. Martelli and O. Beccari. Only after the Second World war, in 1948, under the auspice of the biogeographer Giovanni Negri, and with the renewal of the interest in Plant Systematics and Phytogeography in Italy, as well as in the Mediterranean and African areas as well, Webbia was revived beginning from the volume 6 up to current issues.Soon, Webbia acquired an international role so as to be considered one of the most important and relevant Italian botanical journals. .

Weed Research is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes topical and innovative papers on weed science, in the English language. It is the official journal of the European Weed Research Society. Papers are taken on all aspects of weeds, defined as plants that impact adversely on economic, aesthetic or environmental aspects of any system. Topics include, amongst others, weed biology and control, herbicides, invasive plant species in all environments, population and spatial biology, modelling, genetics, biodiversity and parasitic plants. The journal welcomes submissions on work carried out in any part of the world. In addition to research papers, the journal also seeks review articles and shorter insights papers covering personal views, new methods and breaking news in weed science. The criteria Editors use for accepting manuscripts for publication are originality, relevance, scientific rigour and the clarity of presentation. The journal accepts approximately 40% of submitted manuscripts and the time taken from submission to publication is 11.5 months.

The Journal of Forestry is the most widely circulated scholarly forestry journal in the world. In print since 1902, the Journal has received several national awards for excellence. The mission of the Journal of Forestry is to advance the profession of forestry by keeping professionals informed about significant developments and ideas in the many facets of forestry: economics, education and communication, entomology and pathology, fire, forest ecology, geospatial technologies, history, international forestry, measurements, policy, recreation, silviculture, social sciences, soils and hydrology, urban and community forestry, utilization and engineering, and wildlife management.

Wood Science and Technology publishes research articles and reviews covering the entire field of wood and pulp. Coverage extends to wood anatomy and ultrastructure, all aspects of the biology of wood, including the cytology of cambium, xylem and phloem, tree physiology and the microbiological degradation of wood, the chemistry of wood and bark, and wood physics. Also addressed are problems related to wood technology: combustion, drying, and impregnation of wood, its machining, gluing, and finishing, timber mechanics and rheology, and the conversion of wood into pulp. The Editor-in-Chief is Gerd Wegener, Technische Universität München, Germany; the Co-Editor-in-Chief is J.R. Barnett, School of Plant Sciences, The University of Reading, England UK
