AUTHOR GUIDELINES

INTRODUCTION

The manuscript must be documented original work that has not been published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Manuscript types are classified as Original research articles, Short communication, Review papers and Notes. Original research article must be documented an originality for experimental results, theoretical consideration, and results interpretation. Short communication must report that the important preliminary results are urgent for publication in the field of research and do not warrant as a full paper. Manuscript format should be prepared the same as research article. Review paper should be up-to-date surveys of important current development in pesticide sciences. Note should be provided the topical information including summaries of important international aspects and it must be within a 2 published pages.

Submitted manuscript to be published or not is approved by editorial board and only unpublished manuscript will be return to author.

PEER REVIEW PROCESS

Manuscript Online Review System

The Korean Journal of Pesticide Science has been established a Web-based system that provides a manuscript peer review and submission environment with simple accessibility. For this specific guidelines are available from the top menu at the journal website. Manuscript submitterd to the journal will be evaluated to be the following four categories, Accept, Major Revision, Minor Revision, and Reject.

Special Note to Author

The Korean Journal of Pesticide Science has established the law by which the authors are not allowed to express any complains to the journal Editorial board on the final judgement of their manuscript. Automatic application of the law to all authors will proceed when they submit their manuscripts to the journal.

General Processes

The journal peer review system has three-blind review process to reach the final decision of manuscript evaluation. General processes for manuscript review are described as follows.

The Journal Management Head Office will receive automatically an e-mail notice of manuscript submission

when authors submit successfully their manuscript on the journal online system. The manuscript will be reviewed by a chief editor for evaluationg manuscript structure format. The manuscript may be immediately rejected if typescripts are not inadequately or incorrectly prepared. Thus, the authors should carefully read and follow the guidelines found at the journal website (https://www.kjps.or.kr). All submissions under prescripts review process should be regarded as the initial submission.

Once the manuscripts are correctly prepared and accepted at the evaluation process of format structure. Editor and at least 3 reviewers will be invited for reviewing the manuscript. The authors will receive an notification of receipt of their paper after editor assignment. It would generally take at least two weeks for reviewers to finish the first round of manuscript review.

The author will receive a final decision letter of their manuscript within at least 2 months, including the period from submission, revision to final judgement by referees. The editor’s decision based on reviewer’s comments will be critical to acceptance or rejection of the manuscript.

The authors will be required to revise their manuscript if major or minor revision is needed. The authors should follow the initial submission process to load their revised manuscript on the online review system. The authors should revise their manuscript within one month after revision required; otherwise the manuscript may be rejected without any notice.
