Hello,

I'm writing a manuscript for submission to the journal Soil Biology & Biochemistry and am looking for help to create a citation style for this journal.

The closest style that is currently in the repository, that I could find, is Journal of Evolutionary Biology.

The guide for authors for Soil Biology & Biochemistry is:
http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/332/authorinstructions

The in-text citations seem to be exactly the same for Soil Biology & Biochemistry (SBB) and Journal of Evolutionary Biology (JEB).

The bibliographic style differs in the following ways:

For periodicals, SBB does not italicize the journal name, SBB does not put the the volume number in bold, SBB places a comma between the last authors first initial and the year, and a comma follows the volume number rather than a colon.

For multi-author books, SBB does not italicize the book name, places a comma between the last authors first intial and the year, places a comma after the place of publication, and the page numbers are not in parentheses.

These are the main differences that I can find. There may be more. Can anyone help create a citation style for SBB?

Thanks in advance,
Adam Z.

Wow thanks a lot! That's awesome! I'll be using it in the next few days and will let you know if there are any modifications that need to be made. Adam

don't edit it in words - refreshing will just change it back.
I've just committed the corrected style, update your version by clicking the link in Rintze's post above.
