收稿范围
The journal covers a broad range of topics within the field of genetics and therefore papers must address conceptual or applied issues of interest to the journal's wide readership. We encourage submissions on any study system but there should be a take-home message that focuses on broad general lessons that can be extended beyond single organisms.   

The journal particularly encourages submissions in the following areas

    population genetics / genomics
    molecular evolution and phylogenetics
    functional genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics and proteomics
    genome architecture
    epigenetics
    ecological genetics
    evolutionary genetics
    conservation genetics
    applied genetics
    quantitative genetics
    adaptation genomics
    crop and livestock genetics / genomics

Heredity's original articles cover new theory and primary empirical research that offers novel insights, using the latest advances in technological and analytical tools. We have recently added a 'computer notes' category, for which we invite submissions describing software packages that would be of interest for genetic analyses.  The journal also encourages submission of reviews, mini-reviews and proposals for special issues on current topics.

Editor-in-Chief

Barbara K. Mable, University of Glasgow, UK

Barbara Mable is a Professor of Evolutionary Genetics, with a specific interest in understanding the effects of gene and whole genome duplication on processes involved in adaptation to changing biotic and abiotic environments. She did her PhD at the University of Texas at Austin on the evolution of polyploidy in frogs; during this time she co-edited the 2 nd Edition of Molecular Systematics with David Hillis and Craig Moritz. She did her first postdoc at the University of British Columbia, where she worked with Sally Otto, studying ploidy evolution in yeast. She then went to the University of Edinburgh, where she worked with Deborah Charlesworth on the evolutionary dynamics of self-incompatibility genes in plants. After a four year Assistant Professorship at the University of Guelph in Canada, she moved to the University of Glasgow in 2004, initially on a NERC Advanced fellowship. Her current research interests continue to span organisms and research areas, with recent projects focused on: using genes under balancing selection (such as self-incompatibility genes, resistance genes and immune genes) to study adaptive processes in plants and animals; conservation genetics of Scottish frogs and lampreys; genetics of associations between vectors, pathogens and hosts; and evolution of resistance in nematodes.

Reviews Editor

Frank Hailer, Cardiff University, Wales, UK

Frank Hailer is an evolutionary geneticist with a research profile at the interface of molecular ecology, conservation biology and genomics. He obtained his PhD in Evolutionary Genetics at Uppsala University (Sweden), subsequently conducted postdoctoral research at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo (USA) and the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre BiK-F (Germany). He now holds a permanent position at Cardiff University (UK).
He is particularly interested in the mechanisms of adaptation, speciation and introgression, and how different parts of the genome portray different aspects of evolutionary history. His research traces the origin and fate of genetic variation within individuals to their populations and species, and continues deeper into phylogenetic time scales. Hailer’s research also investigates various key processes in ecology, such as causes & consequences of movement and dispersal, and mechanisms of loss or maintenance of genetic diversity. In his research, he has studied a wide range of taxa, including bears, eagles, tropical seabirds, canids, turtles, fruit flies, lynxes, and elephants, spanning arctic to tropical habitats.
