1. SUBMISSION

Authors should kindly note that submission implies that the content has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except as a brief abstract in the proceedings of a scientific meeting or symposium.

Once the submission materials have been prepared in accordance with the Author Guidelines, manuscripts should be submitted online via the journal online editorial system.

By submitting a manuscript to or reviewing for this publication, your name, email address, and affiliation, and other contact details the publication might require, will be used for the regular operations of the publication, including, when necessary, sharing with the publisher (Wiley) and partners for production and publication. The publication and the publisher recognize the importance of protecting the personal information collected from users in the operation of these services, and have practices in place to ensure that steps are taken to maintain the security, integrity, and privacy of the personal data collected and processed. You can learn more at https://authorservices.wiley.com/statements/data-protection-policy.html.

2. AIMS AND SCOPE

Developmental Evolution is a branch of evolutionary biology that integrates evidence and concepts from developmental biology, phylogenetics, comparative morphology, evolutionary genetics and increasingly also genomics, systems biology as well as synthetic biology to gain a causal understanding of the structure and evolution of organisms.

The Journal of Experimental Zoology – B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution provides a forum where these fields are invited to bring together their insights to further a synthetic understanding of evolution from the molecular through the organismic level. Contributions from all these branches of science are welcome to JEZ-B.

We particularly encourage submissions that apply the tools of genomics, as well as systems and synthetic biology to developmental evolution. At this time the impact of these emerging fields on developmental evolution has not been explored to its fullest extent and for this reason we are eager to foster the relationship of systems and synthetic biology with devo-evo.

3. MANUSCRIPT CATEGORIES AND REQUIREMENTS

Besides the traditional Full-Length Research Paper which is normally reserved for a substantial and significant complete piece of research, the journal publishes the following article types:

Brief Communications: A maximum number of 3000 words and contains no more than 2-3 Figures/Tables in total, such that the figures and tables should only take up a maximum of half a page in the final article.

Review Article: Publication that summarizes recent developments on a specific topic or provide an overview of the literature on a subject area. It highlights important previously reported data.

Resource Article: Short (2,000 - 2,500 words) technical articles that describe a relevant methodology, a new software, or a particularly significant dataset for the field of developmental evolution. They should contain an abstract and the body of the text is flexible.

Perspective: Paper that presents novel ideas and approaches.

Comment: Opinion piece on recent advances in the field.

In the Spotlight: Highlights established, early-career and postdoctoral researchers as well as graduate students in the field of developmental evolution. In the Spotlight articles are 500 words maximum and include one photo of the researcher being highlighted, taking up no more than a single published page. Researchers being highlighted will answer several career and research-related questions that are of interest to the broad readership of JEZ-B. This article type does not require a Title, Abstract, Acknowledgements, References, Tables, Figures, or Appendices. In the Spotlight articles are per invitation only, but suggestions of people to highlight can be sent to the Editor for consideration.

In addition, the journal regularly publishes Special Issues. In the case you are interested to act as a Guest Editor for a Special Issue for the journal, please contact the Editor or the editorial office.

Research Highlights are the most important findings and/or conclusions of the article (or review), stated concisely. Research Highlights will be displayed online immediately below the article's title (they will not appear in the printed version of the paper). Research Highlights should consist of 2 to 3 short sentences and should not exceed 250 characters (including spaces). These are required for the Full-Length Research Papers, Review Articles, Brief Communications and is optional for the Perspectives and Comments published in the journal, and must be submitted at the time of the manuscript submission in ScholarOne.

Graphical Abstract

The graphical abstract provides readers with a visual representation of the conclusions and an efficient way to appreciate the key finding and main message of the work. This feature is part of the online article format and will appear in the online Table of Contents of each issue of the journal but will not appear in the printed version of the paper. Please upload an illustration describing the context and significance of the findings for the broader journal readership to attract the attention of non-specialists. The image should be a single image not containing multiple panels. It is meant to represent one key aspect of the results. The selected image can be a figure or part of a figure that is included in the paper. To prepare the image, select an image or graphic that is easy to read and as much as possible devoid of cluttering items, conveying clear, non-speculative, visual information about the biological context of the findings. Labels, while useful, must be kept to a minimum. The image should be provided in one of the following height and width configurations: 400 x 300 pixel, 300 x 400 pixel, or 400 x 400 pixel, and at a maximal resolution of 300 dpi.

The Graphical Abstract is mandatory for the Full-Length Research Papers, Review Articles and Brief Communications and is optional for the Perspectives and Comments published in the journal. When uploading, please designate the image as Graphical Abstract Image in ScholarOne Manuscripts.

Main Text

The journal uses US spelling; however, authors may submit using either option, as spelling of accepted papers is converted during the production process.

Articles may range from approximately 2,500 to 6,000 words.

Methods and Materials

If a method or tool is introduced in the study, including software, questionnaires, and scales, the author should state the license that is available under and any requirement for permission for use. If an existing method or tool is used in the research, the authors are responsible for checking the license and obtaining the permission. If permission was required, a statement confirming permission should be included in the Methods and Materials section.

References

As of 2017, the references of the journal should be prepared according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA) (6th edition). This means in text citations should follow the author-date method whereby the author's last name and the year of publication for the source should appear in the text, for example, (Jones, 1998). Use of et al. is determined by the number of authors and whether it is the first time a reference has been cited in the paper. Specifically, articles with one or two authors include all names in every in-text citation; articles with three, four, or five authors include all names in the first in-text citation but are abbreviated to the first author name plus et al. upon subsequent citations; and articles with six or more authors are abbreviated to the first author name plus et al. for all in-text citations.

The complete reference list should appear alphabetically by name at the end of the paper. Please note that for journal articles, issue numbers are not included unless each issue in the volume begins with page 1, and a DOI should be provided for all references where available. For more information about APA referencing style, please refer to the APA FAQ.

5. EDITORIAL POLICIES AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS

Peer Review and Acceptance

The acceptance criteria for all papers are the quality and originality of the research and its significance to journal readership. Papers will only be sent to review if the Editor-in-Chief determines that the paper meets the appropriate quality and relevance requirements.

Wiley's policy on the confidentiality of the review process is available here.

Transparent Peer Review: The Journal is participating in a pilot on Peer Review Transparency, where the reviewer reports, author responses, and the editor’s decision letters will be hosted on Publons and linked to from the published article in the case that the article is accepted. Authors have the opportunity to opt out during submission, and reviewers can choose to remain anonymous unless they would like to sign their report.

Data Sharing and Data Accessibility

Please review Wiley’s policy here. This journal expects data sharing.

The journal expects authors to share the data and other artefacts supporting the results in the paper by archiving it in an appropriate public repository. Authors should include a data accessibility statement, including a link to the repository they have used, in order that this statement can be published alongside their paper.

Sample statements are available here. If published, all statements will be placed in the heading of your manuscript.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B recognizes the many benefits of archiving research data. The Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B expects you to archive all the data from which your published results are derived in a public repository. The repository that you choose should offer you guaranteed preservation (see the registry of research data repositories at https://www.re3data.org/) and should help you make it findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-useable, according to FAIR Data Principles (https://www.force11.org/group/fairgroup/fairprinciples).

Human Studies and Subjects

For manuscripts reporting medical studies that involve human participants, a statement identifying the ethics committee that approved the study and confirmation that the study conforms to recognized standards is required, for example: Declaration of Helsinki; US Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects; or European Medicines Agency Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice. It should also state clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study.

Patient anonymity should be preserved. Photographs need to be cropped sufficiently to prevent human subjects being recognized (or an eye bar should be used). Images and information from individual participants will only be published where the authors have obtained the individual's free prior informed consent. Authors do not need to provide a copy of the consent form to the publisher; however, in signing the author license to publish, authors are required to confirm that consent has been obtained. Wiley has a standard patient consent form available for use.

Animal Studies

A statement indicating that the protocol and procedures employed were ethically reviewed and approved, as well as the name of the body giving approval, must be included in the Methods section of the manuscript. Authors are encouraged to adhere to animal research reporting standards, for example the ARRIVE guidelines for reporting study design and statistical analysis; experimental procedures; experimental animals and housing and husbandry. Authors should also state whether experiments were performed in accordance with relevant institutional and national guidelines for the care and use of laboratory animals:

US authors should cite compliance with the US National Research Council's Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, the US Public Health Service's Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, and Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

UK authors should conform to UK legislation under the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 Amendment Regulations (SI 2012/3039).

European authors outside the UK should conform to Directive 2010/63/EU.

Clinical Trial Registration

The journal requires that clinical trials are prospectively registered in a publicly accessible database and clinical trial registration numbers should be included in all papers that report their results. Authors are asked to include the name of the trial register and the clinical trial registration number at the end of the abstract. If the trial is not registered, or was registered retrospectively, the reasons for this should be explained.

Research Reporting Guidelines

Accurate and complete reporting enables readers to fully appraise research, replicate it, and use it. Authors are encouraged to adhere to recognized research reporting standards. The EQUATOR Network collects more than 370 reporting guidelines for many study types, including for:

Randomised trials: CONSORT

Observational studies: STROBE

Systematic reviews: PRISMA

Case reports: CARE

Qualitative research: SRQR

Diagnostic / prognostic studies: STARD

Quality improvement studies: SQUIRE

Economic evaluations: CHEERS

Animal pre-clinical studies: ARRIVE

Study protocols: SPIRIT

Clinical practice guidelines: AGREE

We also encourage authors to refer to and follow guidelines from:

Future of Research Communications and e-Scholarship (FORCE11)

National Research Council's Institute for Laboratory Animal Research guidelines

The Gold Standard Publication Checklist from Hooijmans and colleagues

Minimum Information Guidelines from Diverse Bioscience Communities (MIBBI) website

FAIRsharing website

Guidelines on Publishing and Research Ethics in Journal Articles

Please review Wiley’s policies surrounding human studies, animal studies, clinical trial registration, biosecurity, and research reporting guidelines here.

Species Names

Upon its first use in the title, abstract, and text, the common name of a species should be followed by the scientific name (genus, species, and authority) in parentheses. For well-known species, however, scientific names may be omitted from article titles. If no common name exists in English, only the scientific name should be used.

Genetic Nomenclature

Sequence variants should be described in the text and tables using both DNA and protein designations whenever appropriate. Sequence variant nomenclature must follow the current HGVS guidelines; see varnomen.hgvs.org, where examples of acceptable nomenclature are provided.

Sequence Data

Nucleotide sequence data can be submitted in electronic form to any of the three major collaborative databases: DDBJ, EMBL, or GenBank. It is only necessary to submit to one database as data are exchanged between DDBJ, EMBL, and GenBank on a daily basis. The suggested wording for referring to accession-number information is: ‘These sequence data have been submitted to the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases under accession number U12345’. Addresses are as follows:

DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ): www.ddbj.nig.ac.jp

EMBL Nucleotide Archive: ebi.ac.uk/ena

GenBank: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank

Proteins sequence data should be submitted to either of the following repositories:

Protein Information Resource (PIR): pir.georgetown.edu

SWISS-PROT: expasy.ch/sprot/sprot-top

Structural Data

For papers describing structural data, atomic coordinates and the associated experimental data should be deposited in the appropriate databank (see below). Please note that the data in databanks must be released, at the latest, upon publication of the article. We trust in the cooperation of our authors to ensure that atomic coordinates and experimental data are released on time.

Organic and organometallic compounds: Crystallographic data should not be sent as Supporting Information, but should be deposited with the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) at ccdc.cam.ac.uk/services/structure%5Fdeposit.

Inorganic compounds: Fachinformationszentrum Karlsruhe (FIZ; fiz-karlsruhe.de).

Proteins and nucleic acids: Protein Data Bank (rcsb.org/pdb).

NMR spectroscopy data: BioMagResBank (bmrb.wisc.edu).

Conflict of Interest

The journal requires that all authors disclose any potential sources of conflict of interest. Any interest or relationship, financial or otherwise that might be perceived as influencing an author's objectivity is considered a potential source of conflict of interest. These must be disclosed when directly relevant or directly related to the work that the authors describe in their manuscript. Potential sources of conflict of interest include, but are not limited to: patent or stock ownership, membership of a company board of directors, membership of an advisory board or committee for a company, and consultancy for or receipt of speaker's fees from a company. The existence of a conflict of interest does not preclude publication. If the authors have no conflict of interest to declare, they must also state this at submission. It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to review this policy with all authors and collectively to disclose with the submission ALL pertinent commercial and other relationships.

Funding

Authors should list all funding sources in the Acknowledgments section. Authors are responsible for the accuracy of their funder designation. If in doubt, please check the Open Funder Registry for the correct nomenclature: https://www.crossref.org/services/funder-registry/
