1. Aims and Scope

Journal of Mosquito Research is publishing high quality original research on all aspects of mosquito and its affecting the living organisms, as well as environmental risk and public policy relevant to mosquito modified organisms. Topics include (but are not limited to) the research at molecular or protein level of mosquito, impact on the ecosystem, containing positive and negative information, natural history of mosquito, also publishing innovative research findings in the basic and applied fields of mosquito and novel techniques for improvement, as well as the significant evaluation of its related application field.

The primary criterion for publication is creative insights that are not only of broad interest to biologist, geneticist, and molecular biologists, but are also attractive for teachers or students or researchers engaged in biology, as well as for the public interested in mosquitoes.

Journal of Mosquito Research is affiliated with other biology journals published by EmtoSci Publisher, including Genomics and Applied Biology and other journals. If referees judge that a manuscript is sound but not of special interest and therefore not appropriate for Molecular Pathogens, the referee reports can be shared with other journals published by EmtoSci Publisher. Transferring a manuscript from one journal to another will not incur delays. Conversely, if a manuscript submitted to a sister journal in the EmtoSci Publisher series is judged to be of exceptional interest by the referees and editors.
