Instruction to Authors

Description

Journal of Integrative Agriculture (JIA), formerly Agricultural

Sciences in China (ASC), founded in 2002, is sponsored by Chinese

Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), co-sponsored by Chinese

Association of Agricultural Science Societies (CAASS).  JIA is a

peer-reviewed and multi-disciplinary international journal and published

monthly in English.  JIA Editorial Board consists of 294 well-respected

scholars of agricultural scientific fields.  Prof. WU Kong-ming is the

Chairman of the Board, and Prof. CHEN Hua-lan is the Editor-in-Chief.  

JIA has been published by Elsevier B.V. since 2006 and is a leading

academic journal in agricultural sciences in China.  As released by JCR,

the latest IF of the journal is 4.8.

Published

articles of JIA are available both in print and electronic copies.  The

electronic full texts are available on ScienceDirect

(http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/20953119).

Mission

JIA promotes research and exchange of novel scientific discoveries and

ideas for the advancement of agricultural sciences.  The journal

emphasizes inter-disciplinary and systematic approaches addressing

agricultural life science, agricultural sustainability, food science,

agricultural environment, ecology and energy, therefore to concern for

human health and development around the globe.

Aims

& Scope  JIA seeks to publish those papers that are influential and

will significantly advance scientific understanding in agriculture

fields worldwide.  JIA publishes manuscripts in the five categories

focusing on the core subjects listed below.

Peer

Review This journal operates a double-blind review process. All

contributions will be initially assessed by the Managing editor and

Section editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable

are then sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess

the scientific quality of the paper.

Categories

Commentary

section is a platform to exchange viewpoints, praise and criticism each

other in the agricultural science community.  Authors may submit

comments in regard to the contents published previously in JIA or bring

up other issues that may be of interest and relevant to JIA.  Commentary

will appear at the beginning of the issue with no abstract or keywords.

Review

describes new development and highlight future directions of a

specialized or interdisciplinary significance in agriculture sciences.  

They should be focused on providing insights and summary/context on the

published findings and introducing some new concepts or viewpoints for

solving the important unresolved questions by presenting the research

background, approach, and outlook of the field.  Only invited Reviews

are considered.

Research

Article presents important new research results through reproducible

experimental design, using genetic, biochemical, cell and molecular

biological methods, statistical analyses, and other scientific methods.

Short

Communication is for a concise, but independent report representing a

significant contribution to agriculture sciences.  It is intended to

publish these results that are exceptional interest and particularly

topical and relevant, but the preliminary results. It should be limited

to 2 500 words, and could include no more than two figures or tables.

Letter

needs no more than 1 500 words, can include one figure and one table,

other figures and tables can be submitted online as appendices.

Potential

reviewers  Authors are encouraged to provide a list of potential

reviewers.  Reviewers must not be subject to a conflict of interest

involving the author(s) or manuscript(s).  The editors of JIA are not

obligated to use any reviewer suggested by the author(s).

Creating

the manuscript  Microsoft Word files are required for all manuscripts.

Generally, the manuscript should be arranged in the following sections

and appear in order: Title, Abstract and Keywords, Introduction,

Materials and methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion,

Acknowledgements, Confilict of interest, Ethical aproval (if involved)

and References.

All

manuscripts must be written in clear and grammaticaly correct English.

Scientific language, nomenclature and standard international units

should be used.

The

title page should include: title of the article, full name,

institution(s) and address(es) of author(s); the first author’s

professional title and degree; and correspondence’s detailed postal and

e-mail addresses and phone and fax numbers.  For authors in China, the

information mentioned above in Chinese is required.

If

the work involves the use of animal subjects, the author should ensure

that the manuscript contains a statement that all procedures were

performaed in compliance with revelant laws and institutional guidelines

and the approatiate instituional comittee(s) has approved them.

Acknowledgements

should be a brief statement at the end of the text and may include

source of financial support.  The contract No. should be provided.

References

Author-year citations are required.  Give the author’s name followed by

the year of publication in the text, i.e., (Crews and Davies 1986).  

Where there are more than two authors, only the first should be named

followed by et al., i.e., (Cataldo et al. 1983).  Where there are more

than one citation in the parentheses the “;” should be used (Obata and

Umebayashi 1997; Yang et al. 1998), but if it is the same author, the

“,” should be used (Smith 2000, 2002).  Reference to unpublished data

and personal communication should not appear in the list but should be

cited in the text only (e.g., Clarke J M 2015, personal communication;

Wang G P 2017, unpublished data).  In the reference list, the references

should be listed in an alphabetical order.  Names of journals should be

in italic in full titles rather than the abbreviation.  The following

examples are for guidance.

Reporting sex- and gender-based analyses

Reporting guidance

For

research involving or pertaining to humans, animals or eukaryotic

cells, investigators should integrate sex and gender-based analyses

(SGBA) into their research design according to funder/sponsor

requirements and best practices within a field. Authors should address

the sex and/or gender dimensions of their research in their article. In

cases where they cannot, they should discuss this as a limitation to

their research's generalizability. Importantly, authors should

explicitly state what definitions of sex and/or gender they are applying

to enhance the precision, rigor and reproducibility of their research

and to avoid ambiguity or conflation of terms and the constructs to

which they refer (see Definitions section below). Authors can refer to

the Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER) guidelines and the SAGER

guidelines checklist. These offer systematic approaches to the use and

editorial review of sex and gender information in study design, data

analysis, outcome reporting and research interpretation - however,

please note there is no single, universally agreedupon set of guidelines

for defining sex and gender.

Definitions

Sex

generally refers to a set of biological attributes that are associated

with physical and physiological features (e.g., chromosomal genotype,

hormonal levels, internal and external anatomy). A binary sex

categorization (male/female) is usually designated at birth ("sex

assigned at birth"), most often based solely on the visible external

anatomy of a newborn. Gender generally refers to socially constructed

roles, behaviors, and identities of women, men and gender-diverse people

that occur in a historical and cultural context and may vary across

societies and over time. Gender influences how people view themselves

and each other, how they behave and interact and how power is

distributed in society. Sex and gender are often incorrectly portrayed

as binary (female/male or woman/man) and unchanging whereas these

constructs actually exist along a spectrum and include additional sex

categorizations and gender identities such as people who are

intersex/have differences of sex development (DSD) or identify as

non-binary. Moreover, the terms "sex" and "gender" can be ambiguous?thus

it is important for authors to define the manner in which they are

used. In addition to this definition guidance and the SAGER guidelines,

the resources on this page offer further insight around sex and gender

in research studies.
