Biochemical Systematics And Ecology

Journal Title：Biochemical Systematics And Ecology

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology is devoted to the publication of original papers and reviews, both submitted and invited, in two subject areas: I) the application of biochemistry to problems relating to systematic biology of organisms (biochemical systematics); II) the role of biochemistry in interactions between organisms or between an organism and its environment (biochemical ecology).

In the Biochemical Systematics subject area, comparative studies of the distribution of (secondary) metabolites within a wider taxon (e.g. genus or family) are welcome. Comparative studies, encompassing multiple accessions of each of the taxa within their distribution are particularly encouraged. Welcome are also studies combining classical chemosystematic studies (such as comparative HPLC-MS or GC-MS investigations) with (macro-) molecular phylogenetic studies. Studies that involve the comparative use of compounds to help differentiate among species such as adulterants or substitutes that illustrate the applied use of chemosystematics are welcome. In contrast, studies solely employing macromolecular phylogenetic techniques (gene sequences, RAPD studies etc.) will be considered out of scope. Discouraged are manuscripts that report known or new compounds from a single source taxon without addressing a systematic hypothesis. Also considered out of scope are studies using outdated and hard to reproduce macromolecular techniques such as RAPDs in combination with standard chemosystematic techniques such as GC-FID and GC-MS.

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 致力于发表原创论文和评论，包括提交和邀请的两个主题领域：I) 生物化学在与生物体系统生物学相关的问题中的应用（生物化学系统学）； II) 生物化学在生物体之间或生物体与其环境之间的相互作用中的作用（生化生态学）。

在生化系统学学科领域，欢迎对更广泛的分类单元（例如属或科）内的（次级）代谢物分布进行比较研究。特别鼓励比较研究，包括在其分布中的每个分类群的多个加入。也欢迎将经典化学系统研究（例如比较 HPLC-MS 或 GC-MS 研究）与（宏观）分子系统发育研究相结合的研究。涉及比较使用化合物以帮助区分物种的研究，例如说明化学系统学的应用用途的掺杂物或替代品，是受欢迎的。相反，仅使用大分子系统发育技术（基因序列、RAPD 研究等）的研究将被视为超出范围。不鼓励手稿报告来自单一来源分类群的已知或新化合物而没有解决系统假设。使用过时且难以重现的大分子技术（如 RAPD）与标准化学系统技术（如 GC-FID 和 GC-MS）的研究也被视为超出范围。

Biochemical Systematics And Ecology创刊于1974年，由PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖生物 - 进化生物学全领域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所属细分领域中专业影响力一般，过审相对较易，如果您文章质量佳，选择此期刊，发表机率较高。平均审稿速度约3.8个月，影响因子指数1.085，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。
