Trends In Microbiology

Journal Title：Trends In Microbiology

Trends in Microbiology provides a multidisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of microbiology: from cell biology and immunology to genetics and evolution, and ranges across virology, bacteriology, protozoology and mycology.

Microbiology is, at present, one of the fastest moving disciplines in Life Sciences, thanks also to technological developments of the recent years. The relative ease and rapidity with which small genomes can be entirely sequenced is beginning to have significant impact on all areas of prokaryote biology, from pathogens to extremophiles, and will fuel new developments, for example, in drugs, vaccines and industrial enzyme research. Recent international developments are also responsible for a renewed interest in microbiology.

The Table of Contents includes a lively mix of commentary, correspondence and review. Most articles are commissioned and all of them are peer-reviewed. Consequently, they make an authoritative basis for teaching and keeping abreast of developments across the field.

The focus is on molecular microbiology and virology, and includes topics such as genomics, the gamut of plant and animal host-pathogen interactions, host immune responses, characterization and evolution of virulence determinants, cell cycle and differentiation, symbiosis in plant and animal associations, environmental microbiology, biodiversity and evolution, population dynamics, sex and mutagenesis, antibiotic resistance and production, drug and vaccine targets, as well as aspects of prion diseases and of fungal and protozoan biology.

Trends in Microbiology 为讨论微生物学的各个方面提供了一个多学科论坛：从细胞生物学和免疫学到遗传学和进化，涵盖病毒学、细菌学、原生动物学和真菌学。

微生物学目前是生命科学中发展最快的学科之一，这也得益于近年来的技术发展。对小基因组进行完整测序的相对容易和快速开始对原核生物的所有领域产生重大影响，从病原体到极端微生物，并将推动药物、疫苗和工业酶研究等领域的新发展。最近的国际发展也促使人们对微生物学重新产生了兴趣。

目录包含评论、通信和评论的生动组合。大多数文章都是委托撰写的，所有文章都经过同行评审。因此，它们为教学和了解该领域的发展奠定了权威基础。

重点是分子微生物学和病毒学，包括基因组学、动植物宿主-病原体相互作用的范围、宿主免疫反应、毒力决定因素的表征和进化、细胞周期和分化、植物和动物的共生动物协会、环境微生物学、生物多样性和进化、种群动态、性别和诱变、抗生素耐药性和生产、药物和疫苗靶点，以及朊病毒疾病和真菌和原生动物生物学的各个方面。

Trends In Microbiology创刊于1993年，由ELSEVIER SCI LTD出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖生物 - 生化与分子生物学全领域，在行业领域中学术影响力很大，属于TOP期刊，国际一流期刊，关注度和专业度非常高，所以对原创文章要求创新性很高，过审难度很高，如果您有志于TOP期刊，建议关注此刊。平均审稿速度较慢,6-12周，影响因子指数13.546，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。
