Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences (JAPS) (ISSN: 2071-7024)

Description

The Journal of Animal and Plant Sciences is an Open access journal that aims to publish articles covering all areas of research on animal and plant biology, production, utilisation, exploitation and conservation. Materials to be published may be on research project outcomes, reviews of relevant scientific subjects, presentation of theoretical concepts or general interrogation of scientific ideas. This journal will publish articles on the following areas:
New knowledge to improve crop and animal productivity on farm.
Beneficial and detrimental effects of plants or animals under controlled environments, greenhouse (for plants) or enclosed animal farming systems.
Interactions between species and the consequence on biodiversity conservation efforts.
Articles that enhance our understanding and capacity to improve livelihoods through animal and plant production, e.g. phytoremediation to clean polluted environments, plants and animal resources as energy sources (bio-fuels, biogas, energy farming).
Plant and animal based industrial development, e.g. pharmaceutics research, food industry, dyes, leather, and other resource exploitation.
Interface between pests and pathogens of plants and animals, their management and human health, e.g. zoonoses, chemical pollutants in the environment, chemical or drug residues in foods, etc.
Industrial and value adding technologies associated with animal and plant production.
Controversial issues, e.g. GMOs and their place in modern society.
We welcome Reviews on issues of interest to the above fields of science.
