Special Issue on Agricultural Biodiversity

Agricultural Biodiversity is a sub-set of general biodiversity. It includes all forms of life directly relevant to agriculture: rare seed varieties and animal breeds, but also many other organisms such as soil fauna, weeds, pests, predators, and all of the native plants and animals existing on and flowing through the farm.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring agricultural biodiversity. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Genetic diversity and genetic resources
• Crop diversification
• Agrobiodiversity for food, nutrition and ecosystem services
• Adaptation and mitigation of climate change
• Agro-ecosystems conservation strategies
• Biosafety and biosecurity issues
• Management and sustainable development
• New innovative technology

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue – Agricultural Biodiversity” should be selected during your submission.
