Peer Review Policy

PPPT prioritizes academic rigor and the validation of agricultural innovations through a structured review lifecycle.

1. Review Structure We utilize a double-blind peer review involving 4 domain experts (2 Internal & 2 External). Identities are concealed on both sides to promote absolute impartiality.

2. Evaluation Metrics Reviewers evaluate manuscripts on data analysis validity, relevance to modern plant pathology, and writing clarity.

3. Timeline The process typically spans 4–6 weeks. Authors are encouraged to respond to revision requests promptly to facilitate timely monthly publication.

4. Reviewer Ethics Reviewers must declare conflicts of interest and are prohibited from using unpublished data for personal gain.
