Published for the British Society for Plant Pathology.Molecular Plant Pathology is published bi-monthly and welcomes submissions from all areas of molecular plant pathology including research on diseases caused by fungi, oomycetes, viruses, nematodes, bacteria, insects, parasitic plants and other organisms.Molecular Plant Pathology is especially interested in manuscripts emphasizing molecular analyses of pathogens, determinants affecting host response to plant pathogens or the interaction of both. In addition to the principal content of full length and short research papers, Molecular Plant Pathology will also include technical advances, along with major and micro reviews on areas of particular interest and importance. The journal is dedicated to minimising the time between submission, review and publication and to providing a high quality forum for original research in molecular plant pathology.
