About the journal

Aims and scope

Tropical

Agricultural Sciences (TAS) is a comprehensive international journal

dedicated to tropical agriculture with high academic aspirations. It is

initiated led by the Institute of Tropical Bioscience and Biotechnology,

Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences (CATAS), in

collaboration with the China Tropical Crop Society, the State Key

Laboratory of Tropical Crop Breeding and the Sanya Research Institute of

CATAS.

TAS

focuses on fundamental and applied research in tropical agriculture,

including germplasm resources and genetic breeding, crop cultivation,

plant physiology and biochemistry, plant protection and biosafety,

agricultural product processing, nutrition and health, agroecology and

environmental protection, animal science and veterinary medicine,

frontier basic and emerging interdisciplinary research, agricultural

economics and informatics. The journal is committed to publishing

high-quality research findings and cutting-edge advances in tropical

agriculture, with particular focus on how tropical agriculture

contributes to tackling climate change impacts, environmental

challenges, rural development, food security, industrial transformation,

economic growth and poverty reduction, and promoting technological

innovation in this field.

Peer review

This

journal follows a single anonymized review process. Your submission

will initially be assessed by our editors to determine suitability for

publication in this journal. If your submission is deemed suitable, it

will typically be sent to a minimum of two reviewers for an independent

expert assessment of the scientific quality. The decision as to whether

your article is accepted or rejected will be made by our editors.

Read more about peer review.

Our editors are not involved in making decisions about papers which:

they have written themselves.

have been written by family members or colleagues.

relate to products or services in which they have an interest.

Any

such submissions will be subject to the journal's usual procedures and

peer review will be handled independently of the editor involved and

their research group. Read more about editor duties.

Authors

may submit a formal appeal request to the editorial decision, provided

it meets all the requirements and follows the procedure outlined in

Elsevier’s Appeal Policy. Only one appeal per submission will be

considered and the appeal decision will be final.

Special issues and article collections

The

peer review process for special issues and article collections follows

the same process as outlined above for regular submissions, except, a

guest editor may send the submissions out to the reviewers and may

recommend a decision to the journal editor. The journal editor oversees

the peer review process of all special issues and article collections to

ensure the high standards of publishing ethics and responsiveness are

respected and is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance

or rejection of articles.

Open access

We refer you to our open access information page to learn about open access options for this journal.

Ethics and policies

Ethics in publishing

Authors must follow ethical guidelines stated in Elsevier's Publishing Ethics Policy.

Submission declaration

When authors submit an article to an Elsevier journal it is implied that:

the

work described has not been published previously except in the form of a

preprint, an abstract, a published lecture, academic thesis or

registered report. See our policy on multiple, redundant or concurrent

publication.

the article is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

the

article's publication is approved by all authors and tacitly or

explicitly by the responsible authorities where the work was carried

out.

if

accepted, the article will not be published elsewhere in the same form,

in English or in any other language, including electronically, without

the written consent of the copyright-holder.

To verify compliance with our journal publishing policies, we may check your manuscript with our screening tools.

Authorship

All authors should have made substantial contributions to all of the following:

The conception and design of the study, or acquisition of data, or analysis and interpretation of data

Drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content.

Final approval of the version to be submitted.

All

authors are accountable for all aspects of the work, to ensure that

questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work

are appropriately investigated and resolved.

Authors

should appoint a single corresponding author to communicate with the

journal during the editorial process. This individual submits the

manuscript and all required documentation to the journal, and serves as

the primary contact between the journal and the co-authors. Only the

corresponding author’s affiliation will be used to determine eligibility

for a publishing agreement, and possible discounts related to it.

Affiliations of other co-authors are not relevant for eligibility.

Changes to authorship

The

editors of this journal generally will not consider changes to

authorship once a manuscript has been submitted. It is important that

authors carefully consider the authorship list and order of authors and

provide a definitive author list at submission.

The policy of this journal around authorship changes:

All

authors must be listed in the manuscript and their details entered into

the submission system. Changes can only be made prior to acceptance,

and only if approved by the journal editor. This includes additions,

deletion, or rearrangement of author names.

Requests

to change authorship must be made by the corresponding author using the

Authorship Change Request form. The corresponding author must provide

the reason for the request to the journal editor with written

confirmation from all authors, including any authors being added or

removed, that they agree with the changes. Requests which do not comply

with the instructions outlined in the form will not be considered.

This

journal does not allow authorship changes after acceptance. This

includes additions, deletions, or the rearrangement of author names,

including changes to the corresponding author.

The review process may be paused while a change in authorship request is being considered.

Change

requests made by the authors without the Authorship Change Request form

or editor approval may result in the rejection of the manuscript, or

retraction if the article has already been published.

Declaration of competing interests

All

authors must disclose any financial and personal relationships with

other people or organizations that could inappropriately influence or

bias their work. Examples of potential competing interests include:

Employment

Consultancies

Stock ownership

Honoraria

Paid expert testimony

Patent applications or registrations

Grants or any other funding

Affiliation with the journal as an Editor or Advisory Board Member

The declarations tool should always be completed.

Authors with a journal affiliation to declare should enter the following text under “Other Activities” within the  declarations tool and should inform the journal and publisher prior to completing the submission process:

Given

their role as [AUTHOR JOURNAL ROLE TITLE], [AUTHOR NAME] had no

involvement in the peer-review of this article and has no access to

information regarding its peer-review. Full responsibility for the

editorial process for this article was delegated to another journal

editor.

Editorial

disclosure statements will be included as a footnote and/or in the

declaration of competing interest section of the article.

Authors with no competing interests to declare should select the option "I have nothing to declare".

The

resulting Word document containing your declaration should be uploaded

at the "attach/upload files" step in the submission process. It is

important that the Word document is saved in the .doc/.docx file format.

Author signatures are not required.

Funding sources

Authors

must disclose any funding sources who provided financial support for

the conduct of the research and/or preparation of the article. The role

of sponsors, if any, should be declared in relation to the study design,

collection, analysis and interpretation of data, writing of the report

and decision to submit the article for publication. If funding sources

had no such involvement this should be stated in your submission.

List funding sources in this standard way to facilitate compliance to funder's requirements:

Funding:

This work was supported by the National Institutes of Health [grant

numbers xxxx, yyyy]; the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Seattle,

WA [grant number zzzz]; and the United States Institutes of Peace [grant

number aaaa].

It

is not necessary to include detailed descriptions on the program or

type of grants, scholarships and awards. When funding is from a block

grant or other resources available to a university, college, or other

research institution, submit the name of the institute or organization

that provided the funding.

If no funding has been provided for the research, it is recommended to include the following sentence:

This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors.

Declaration of generative AI use

Authors must declare the use of generative AI tools in the manuscript preparation process upon submission of the paper.

Generative

AI and AI-assisted technologies (“AI tools”) have been rapidly adopted

in research and scholarly publishing, offering significant benefits

while requiring clear standards for responsible and transparent use.

Authors

preparing a manuscript for this journal may use AI tools to support

them. However, these tools must never be used as a substitute for human

critical thinking, expertise and evaluation. AI tools may only be

applied with human oversight and control.

Please

read Elsevier’s detailed author policy on the use of AI tools, as

stated in Elsevier’s generative AI policies for journals.

Ultimately, authors are responsible and accountable for the contents of their work. This includes accountability for:

Carefully

reviewing and verifying the accuracy, comprehensiveness, and

impartiality of all AI-generated output (including checking the sources,

as AI-generated references can be incorrect or fabricated).

Editing

and adapting all material thoroughly to ensure the manuscript

represents the author’s authentic and original contribution and reflects

their own analysis, interpretation, insights and ideas.

Ensuring accuracy and originality of any AI generated images and provide appropriate attribution where relevant.

Ensuring

the use of any tools or sources, AI-based or otherwise, is made clear

and transparent to readers. If AI tools have been used, we require a

disclosure statement upon submission; please see example below.

Ensuring

the manuscript is developed in a way that safeguards data privacy,

intellectual property and other rights, by checking the terms and

conditions of any AI tool that is used.

Finally,

authors must not list or cite AI tools as an author or co-author on the

manuscript since authorship implies responsibilities and tasks that can

only be attributed to, and performed by, humans.

The

use of AI tools in the manuscript preparation process must be declared

by adding a statement at the end of the manuscript when the paper is

first submitted. The statement will appear in the published work and

should be placed in a new section before the references list. An

example:

Title of new section: Declaration of generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the manuscript preparation process.

Statement:

During the preparation of this work the author(s) used [NAME OF TOOL /

SERVICE] in order to [REASON]. After using this tool/service, the

author(s) reviewed and edited the content as needed and take(s) full

responsibility for the content of the published article.

The

declaration does not apply to the use of basic tools, such as tools

used to check grammar, spelling and references. In addition, authors are

not required to disclose the use of AI tools or features within

specialist disability-related assistive technology, provided these are

used solely for accessibility purposes.

If you have nothing to disclose, you do not need to add a statement.

Please

note: to protect authors’ rights and the confidentiality of their

research, this journal does not currently allow academic editors and

reviewers to upload an unpublished manuscript into a generative AI tool,

as is stated in Elsevier’s generative AI policies for journals.

However, AI tools may be used in a supportive capacity by editors and

reviewers to improve structure and language of the review report or

editorial decision letter or to conduct a background literature search.

Elsevier is actively evaluating compliant AI tools and may revise this

policy in the future.

Preprints

Preprint sharing

Authors

may share preprints in line with Elsevier's article sharing policy.

Sharing preprints, such as on a preprint server, will not count as prior

publication.

We advise you to read our policy on multiple, redundant or concurrent publication.

Use of inclusive language

Inclusive

language acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is

sensitive to differences, and promotes equal opportunities. Authors

should ensure their work uses inclusive language throughout and contains

nothing which might imply one individual is superior to another on the

grounds of:

age

gender

race

ethnicity

culture

sexual orientation

disability or health condition

We

recommend avoiding the use of descriptors about personal attributes

unless they are relevant and valid. Write for gender neutrality with the

use of plural nouns ("clinicians, patients/clients") as default.

Wherever possible, avoid using "he, she," or "he/she."

No

assumptions should be made about the beliefs of readers and writing

should be free from bias, stereotypes, slang, reference to dominant

culture and/or cultural assumptions.

These

guidelines are meant as a point of reference to help you identify

appropriate language but are by no means exhaustive or definitive.

Reporting sex- and gender-based analyses

There is no single, universally agreed-upon set of guidelines for defining sex and gender. We offer the following guidance:

Sex

and gender-based analyses (SGBA) should be integrated into research

design when research involves or pertains to humans, animals or

eukaryotic cells. This should be done in accordance with any

requirements set by funders or sponsors and best practices within a

field.

Sex

and/or gender dimensions of the research should be addressed within the

article or declared as a limitation to the generalizability of the

research.

Definitions

of sex and/or gender applied should be explicitly stated to enhance the

precision, rigor and reproducibility of the research and to avoid

ambiguity or conflation of terms and the constructs to which they refer.

We

advise you to read the Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER)

guidelines and the SAGER checklist (PDF) on the EASE website, which

offer systematic approaches to the use of sex and gender information in

study design, data analysis, outcome reporting and research

interpretation.

For further information we suggest reading the rationale behind and recommended use of the SAGER guidelines.

Definitions of sex and/or gender

We ask authors to define how sex and gender have been used in their research and publication. Some guidance:

Sex

generally refers to a set of biological attributes that are associated

with physical and physiological features such as chromosomal genotype,

hormonal levels, internal and external anatomy. A binary sex

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

assigned at birth") and is in most cases based solely on the visible

external anatomy of a newborn. In reality, sex categorizations include

people who are intersex/have differences of sex development (DSD).

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.

Depending

on the focus of a paper, sex and/or gender may or may not be relevant

to the content of the paper. We recognize that beliefs, attitudes, and

laws relating to sex and gender may vary. These articles do not attempt

to dictate author beliefs but rather require that, where relevant to an

author’s research or paper, the author must provide clear explanations

of how the paper and research define and use sex and gender.

Jurisdictional claims

Elsevier

respects the decisions taken by its authors as to how they choose to

designate territories and identify their affiliations in their published

content. Elsevier’s policy is to take a neutral position with respect

to territorial disputes or jurisdictional claims, including, but not

limited to, maps and institutional affiliations. For journals that

Elsevier publishes on behalf of a third party owner, the owner may set

its own policy on these issues.

Maps:

Readers should be able to locate any study areas shown within maps

using common mapping platforms. Maps should only show the area actually

studied and authors should not include a location map which displays a

larger area than the bounding box of the study area. Authors should add a

note clearly stating that "map lines delineate study areas and do not

necessarily depict accepted national boundaries”.  During the review process, Elsevier’s editors may request authors to change maps if these guidelines are not followed.

Institutional

affiliations: Authors should use either the full, standard title of

their institution or the standard abbreviation of the institutional name

so that the institutional name can be independently verified for

research integrity purposes.
