1 About Genomics and Applied Biology
Genomics and Applied Biology (GAB) is an open access, peer reviewed journal published online by BioSci Publisher. The journal publishes all the latest and outstanding research articles, letters and reviews in all areas of genomics and applied biology, the range of topics including genomic structure and function, evolutionary and comparative genomics, genomics and bioinformatics, gene expression and its function identification, nutrigenomics and application technology of applied biology based on genomics and other topical advisory subjects.

2 Aims and Scopes

Genomics and Applied Biology is committed to publishing and disseminating all the latest and outstanding research articles, letters and reviews in all areas of genomics and applied biology. All papers chosen for publication should be innovative research work in the related field, including the structural genomics, functional genomics, comparative genomics, nutrigenomics and application technology of applied biology based on genomics and other topical advisory subjects.

The primary criterion for publication is creative insights that are not only of broad interest to microbiologist, 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 pathogens.
