SCOPE AND POLICY

 

Genetics and Molecular Biology (formerly named Revista Brasileira de Genética/Brazilian Journal of Genetics - ISSN 0100-8455) is published by the Sociedade Brasileira de Genética (Brazilian Society of Genetics). 

The Journal considers contributions that present the results

of original research in genetics, evolution and related scientific

disciplines. Manuscripts presenting methods and

applications only, without an analysis of genetic data, will not

be considered.

Although Genetics and Molecular Biology is an official publication of the Sociedade Brasileira de Genética (Brazilian Society of Genetics), contributors are not required to be members of the Society.

It is a fundamental condition that submitted manuscripts have not been and will not be published elsewhere. With the acceptance of a manuscript for

publication, the publishers acquire full and exclusive copyright for all languages and countries.

Manuscripts considered in conformity with the scope of the journal, judged

by the Editor, are reviewed by the Associate Editors and two or more external reviewers. Acceptance by the Editor is based on the quality of the work as substantial contribution to the field and on the overall presentation of the manuscript.

 

Genetics and Molecular Biology follows and Open-Access policy. Articles are made available in full content at SciELO (Scientific Library Online) hosted at www.scielo.br/gmb. Back issues dating to 1998 are available through this site.
Back issues of the earlier titles (Brazilian Journal of Genetics and Revista Brasileira de Genética) are hosted at GMB´s Editorial Office. GMB articles published since 2009 are also indexed at PubMed Central, and there available as a full text version.

 

The official abbreviation for Genetics and Molecular Biology is Genet. Mol. Biol.
