Journal of Chemical Ecology

期刊简介：Journal of Chemical Ecology is devoted to promoting an ecological understanding of the origin, function, and significance of natural chemicals that mediate interactions within and between organisms. Such relationships, often adaptively important, comprise the oldest of communication systems in terrestrial and aquatic environments. With recent advances in methodology for elucidating structures of the chemical compounds involved, a strong interdisciplinary association has developed between chemists and biologists which should accelerate understanding of these interactions in nature.Scientific contributions, including review articles, are welcome from either members or nonmembers of the International Society of Chemical Ecology. Manuscripts must be in English and may include original research in biological and/or chemical aspects of chemical ecology. They may include substantive observations of interactions in nature, the elucidation of the chemical compounds involved, the mechanisms of their production and reception, and the translation of such basic information into survey and control protocols. Sufficient biological and chemical detail should be given to substantiate conclusions and to permit results to be evaluated and reproduced.

【译文】《化学生态学杂志》致力于促进对自然化学物质起源、功能和重要性的生态学理解，这些化学物质调节生物体之间以及生物体内部的相互作用。这些关系，通常具有适应性重要意义，构成了陆地和水生环境中最早的交流系统。随着阐明涉及化学化合物结构的实验方法的发展，化学家和生物学家之间形成了一种强大的跨学科联系，这应该会加速对自然界中这些相互作用的理解。欢迎来自国际化学生态学会成员或非成员的科学贡献，包括综述文章。手稿必须用英语撰写，可以包括化学生态学的生物和/或化学方面的原创研究。它们可以包括对自然界中相互作用的实质性观察，阐明涉及的化学化合物，它们的生产和接收机制，以及将此类基本信息转化为调查和控制方案。应提供足够的生物和化学细节，以证实结论并允许评估和复制结果。
