Instruction to Authors
Description Journal of Integrative Agriculture (JIA), formerly Agricultural Sciences in China (ASC), founded in 2002, is sponsored by Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS), co-sponsored by Chinese Association of Agricultural Science Societies (CAASS). JIA is a peer-reviewed and multi-disciplinary international journal and published monthly in English. JIA Editorial Board consists of 294 well-respected scholars of agricultural scientific fields. Prof. WU Kong-ming is the Chairman of the Board, and Prof. CHEN Hua-lan is the Editor-in-Chief. JIA has been published by Elsevier B.V. since 2006 and is a leading academic journal in agricultural sciences in China. As released by JCR, the latest IF of the journal is 4.8.
Published articles of JIA are available both in print and electronic copies. The electronic full texts are available on ScienceDirect (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/20953119).
Mission JIA promotes research and exchange of novel scientific discoveries and ideas for the advancement of agricultural sciences. The journal emphasizes inter-disciplinary and systematic approaches addressing agricultural life science, agricultural sustainability, food science, agricultural environment, ecology and energy, therefore to concern for human health and development around the globe.
Aims & Scope JIA seeks to publish those papers that are influential and will significantly advance scientific understanding in agriculture fields worldwide. JIA publishes manuscripts in the five categories focusing on the core subjects listed below.
Peer Review This journal operates a double-blind review process. All contributions will be initially assessed by the Managing editor and Section editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable are then sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess the scientific quality of the paper.
Categories
Commentary section is a platform to exchange viewpoints, praise and criticism each other in the agricultural science community. Authors may submit comments in regard to the contents published previously in JIA or bring up other issues that may be of interest and relevant to JIA. Commentary will appear at the beginning of the issue with no abstract or keywords.
Review describes new development and highlight future directions of a specialized or interdisciplinary significance in agriculture sciences. They should be focused on providing insights and summary/context on the published findings and introducing some new concepts or viewpoints for solving the important unresolved questions by presenting the research background, approach, and outlook of the field. Only invited Reviews are considered.
Research Article presents important new research results through reproducible experimental design, using genetic, biochemical, cell and molecular biological methods, statistical analyses, and other scientific methods.
Short Communication is for a concise, but independent report representing a significant contribution to agriculture sciences. It is intended to publish these results that are exceptional interest and particularly topical and relevant, but the preliminary results. It should be limited to 2 500 words, and could include no more than two figures or tables.
Letter needs no more than 1 500 words, can include one figure and one table, other figures and tables can be submitted online as appendices.

Potential reviewers Authors are encouraged to provide a list of potential reviewers. Reviewers must not be subject to a conflict of interest involving the author(s) or manuscript(s). The editors of JIA are not obligated to use any reviewer suggested by the author(s).
Creating the manuscript Microsoft Word files are required for all manuscripts. Generally, the manuscript should be arranged in the following sections and appear in order: Title, Abstract and Keywords, Introduction, Materials and methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgements, Confilict of interest, Ethical aproval (if involved) and References.
All manuscripts must be written in clear and grammaticaly correct English. Scientific language, nomenclature and standard international units should be used.
The title page should include: title of the article, full name, institution(s) and address(es) of author(s); the first author’s professional title and degree; and correspondence’s detailed postal and e-mail addresses and phone and fax numbers. For authors in China, the information mentioned above in Chinese is required.
If the work involves the use of animal subjects, the author should ensure that the manuscript contains a statement that all procedures were performaed in compliance with revelant laws and institutional guidelines and the approatiate instituional comittee(s) has approved them.
Acknowledgements should be a brief statement at the end of the text and may include source of financial support. The contract No. should be provided.
References Author-year citations are required. Give the author’s name followed by the year of publication in the text, i.e., (Crews and Davies 1986). Where there are more than two authors, only the first should be named followed by et al., i.e., (Cataldo et al. 1983). Where there are more than one citation in the parentheses the “;” should be used (Obata and Umebayashi 1997; Yang et al. 1998), but if it is the same author, the “,” should be used (Smith 2000, 2002). Reference to unpublished data and personal communication should not appear in the list but should be cited in the text only (e.g., Clarke J M 2015, personal communication; Wang G P 2017, unpublished data). In the reference list, the references should be listed in an alphabetical order. Names of journals should be in italic in full titles rather than the abbreviation.

Reporting sex- and gender-based analyses
Reporting guidance
For research involving or pertaining to humans, animals or eukaryotic cells, investigators should integrate sex and gender-based analyses (SGBA) into their research design according to funder/sponsor requirements and best practices within a field. Authors should address the sex and/or gender dimensions of their research in their article. In cases where they cannot, they should discuss this as a limitation to their research's generalizability. Importantly, authors should explicitly state what definitions of sex and/or gender they are applying to enhance the precision, rigor and reproducibility of their research and to avoid ambiguity or conflation of terms and the constructs to which they refer (see Definitions section below). Authors can refer to the Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER) guidelines and the SAGER guidelines checklist. These offer systematic approaches to the use and editorial review of sex and gender information in study design, data analysis, outcome reporting and research interpretation - however, please note there is no single, universally agreedupon set of guidelines for defining sex and gender.
Definitions
Sex generally refers to a set of biological attributes that are associated with physical and physiological features (e.g., chromosomal genotype, hormonal levels, internal and external anatomy). A binary sex categorization (male/female) is usually designated at birth ("sex assigned at birth"), most often based solely on the visible external anatomy of a newborn. Gender generally refers to socially constructed roles, behaviors, and identities of women, men and gender-diverse people that occur in a historical and cultural context and may vary across societies and over time. Gender influences how people view themselves and each other, how they behave and interact and how power is distributed in society. Sex and gender are often incorrectly portrayed as binary (female/male or woman/man) and unchanging whereas these constructs actually exist along a spectrum and include additional sex categorizations and gender identities such as people who are intersex/have differences of sex development (DSD) or identify as non-binary. Moreover, the terms "sex" and "gender" can be ambiguous?thus it is important for authors to define the manner in which they are used. In addition to this definition guidance and the SAGER guidelines, the resources on this page offer further insight around sex and gender in research studies.
