June 2019 MPMI Cover.jpg

Beginning this month, Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions (MPMI) will significantly reduce the fees paid by IS-MPMI and APS members who publish in the journal.

“This will further strengthen MPMI as a member journal of both IS-MPMI and APS,” said Nik Grunwald, chair of the APS publications board. “Members of both societies already receive member discounts on personal subscriptions to MPMI and we’re happy we can acknowledge the importance of members who publish here.” This effort was initiated by MPMI editor-in-chief Jeanne Harris’s work with the APS publications board after discussions with the IS-MPMI board.

Article fees and subscriptions help offset the costs to publish and support some of the major improvements to MPMI, such as the recent site upgrade. “APS is always looking for ways to improve the functionality of our journal platform,” according to Grunwald.
