Journal Title：Trends In Microbiology

Trends in Microbiology provides a multidisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of microbiology: from cell biology and immunology to genetics and evolution, and ranges across virology, bacteriology, protozoology and mycology.

Microbiology is, at present, one of the fastest moving disciplines in Life Sciences, thanks also to technological developments of the recent years. The relative ease and rapidity with which small genomes can be entirely sequenced is beginning to have significant impact on all areas of prokaryote biology, from pathogens to extremophiles, and will fuel new developments, for example, in drugs, vaccines and industrial enzyme research. Recent international developments are also responsible for a renewed interest in microbiology.

The Table of Contents includes a lively mix of commentary, correspondence and review. Most articles are commissioned and all of them are peer-reviewed. Consequently, they make an authoritative basis for teaching and keeping abreast of developments across the field.

The focus is on molecular microbiology and virology, and includes topics such as genomics, the gamut of plant and animal host-pathogen interactions, host immune responses, characterization and evolution of virulence determinants, cell cycle and differentiation, symbiosis in plant and animal associations, environmental microbiology, biodiversity and evolution, population dynamics, sex and mutagenesis, antibiotic resistance and production, drug and vaccine targets, as well as aspects of prion diseases and of fungal and protozoan biology.

《微生物學(xué)趨勢》為微生物學(xué)的各個方面提供了一個多學(xué)科論壇，供大家討論：從細胞生物學(xué)和免疫學(xué)到遺傳學(xué)和進化，涵蓋病毒學(xué)、細菌學(xué)、原生動物學(xué)和真菌學(xué)。

微生物學(xué)是目前生命科學(xué)中發(fā)展最快的學(xué)科之一，這也要歸功于近年來的技術(shù)發(fā)展。小基因組可以相對容易和快速地進行完全測序，這開始對原核生物生物學(xué)的所有領(lǐng)域產(chǎn)生重大影響，從病原體到極端微生物，并將推動藥物、疫苗和工業(yè)酶研究等方面的新發(fā)展。最近的國際發(fā)展也重新激發(fā)了人們對微生物學(xué)的興趣。

目錄包括評論、通信和評論的生動組合。大多數(shù)文章都是委托撰寫的，并且都經(jīng)過同行評審。因此，它們?yōu)榻虒W(xué)和跟上整個領(lǐng)域的發(fā)展奠定了權(quán)威基礎(chǔ)。

重點是分子微生物學(xué)和病毒學(xué)，包括基因組學(xué)、植物和動物宿主-病原體相互作用的范圍、宿主免疫反應(yīng)、毒力決定因素的特征和進化、細胞周期和分化、植物和動物共生、環(huán)境微生物學(xué)、生物多樣性和進化、種群動態(tài)、性別和誘變、抗生素耐藥性和生產(chǎn)、藥物和疫苗靶標，以及朊病毒疾病和真菌和原生動物生物學(xué)等方面的主題。

Trends In Microbiology創(chuàng)刊于1993年，由Elsevier Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋生物 - 生化與分子生物學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，在行業(yè)領(lǐng)域中學(xué)術(shù)影響力很大，屬于TOP期刊，國際一流期刊，關(guān)注度和專業(yè)度非常高，所以對原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性很高，過審難度很高，如果您有志于TOP期刊，建議關(guān)注此刊。平均審稿速度 較慢,6-12周 ，影響因子指數(shù)14，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
