Tropical Plant Pathology is an international journal devoted to publishing a wide-range of research on fundamental and applied aspects of plant diseases of concern to agricultural, forest and ornamental crops from tropical and subtropical environments.
The journal covers etiology and epidemiology of plant disease as well as population biology of plant pathogens, host-pathogen interactions, physiological and molecular plant pathology, and strategies to promote crop protection. First reports of plant diseases/pathogens in a region or new hosts, even when submitted as short communications, are no longer accepted.
Tropical Plant Pathology is the official journal of the Brazilian Phytopathology Society.
