FEMS Yeast Research

Aims & Scope

FEMS Yeast Research offers efficient publication of high-quality original Research Articles, Mini-reviews, Letters to the Editor, Perspectives and Commentaries that express current opinions.

The journal will select for publication only those manuscripts deemed to be of major relevance to the field and generally will not consider articles that are largely descriptive without insights on underlying mechanism or biology.

Submissions on any yeast species are welcome provided they report results within the scope outlined below and are of significance to the yeast field.
