Instructions
Citations in the text should have the authors immediately followed by the date to facilitate the electronic linkages which are available on-line, for example: (Shen and Ma 2001) or Shen and Ma (2001). If several papers by the same author in the same year are cited, they should be lettered in sequence (2000a, b), etc. When papers are by more than two authors they should be cited thus: (Shen et al. 2001).

In the list, references must be placed in alphabetical order without serial numbering.

The following standard form of citation should be used, including the title of each paper or book:

Only papers published or in press should be cited in the literature list. Unpublished results, including submitted manuscripts and those in preparation, should be cited as unpublished in the text. Journal titles should be abbreviated where known.

Citation of articles from e-journals and journal articles published ahead of print should have the author names, year, title, journal title followed by the assigned digital object identifier (DOI) or the appropriate URL:

Citation of the paper after print publication should be:
Parry MAJ, Andralojc PJ, Mitchell RAC, Madgwick PJ, Keys AJ (2003). Manipulation of Rubisco: the amount, activity, function and regulation. Journal of Experimental Botany 54:1321-1333.

Citation of other URL addresses (unless in reference to an e-journal) may be made in the text but should not be included in the reference list.

The list of literature must be typed double-spaced throughout and checked thoroughly before submission. If the list is not in the correct form it will be returned to the author for amendment and publication of the paper may be delayed
