Attention Plant Biologists and Agricultural Scientists in Developing Countries!

Help Support ASPB and Other Nonprofit Scientific Journals

Nonprofit scientific societies and associations publish many of the finest scientific journals available today, but each alone lacks the financial resources to compete with commercial publishers’ marketing efforts. ASPB has joined with 16 other nonprofit scientific societies and associations to form the Nonprofit Journals Group. This group needs your help to spread the word and create awareness for these valuable journals. Please visit the new Nonprofit Journals Group website and use the library recommendation form, found within each journal page, to request these journals for your library—and pass it on to your colleagues now!

Reminder!
In consideration of the low member subscription rates to the print versions of Plant Physiology and The Plant Cell and the free online access to both journals that all members enjoy, members agree to retain their personal copies of the journals for at least three years from the date of issue, not depositing them in any library or institution before the end of this time. Members also agree not to release their personal access code, assigned by ASPB, to any other party for the duration of their membership in ASPB. Thank you!
