ISME Communications

Abstract

ISME Communications covers the diverse and integrated areas of microbial ecology spanning the breadth of microbial life. The journal encourages contributions that offer substantial advances in the study of microbial ecosystems, communities, and interactions of microorganisms in the environment. Focus is on innovative studies that report on new methodologies in microbial ecology, microbiome analyses in a variety of habitats, holobiont interactions, climate change microbiology, biogeography diversity surveys, microbial evolution & taxonomic novelty, time-series analyses and mechanistic studies on the functional importance of microorganisms in specific environments. As a fully open access partner to The ISME Journal, publications in ISME Communications emphasize research quality and diversity, encouraging both discovery-based and methods-oriented publications.
