Chemoecology is a journal integrating evolution, ecology, and chemistry in the field of chemical ecology.
- Covers the evolutionary biology, mechanisms, and chemistry of biotic interactions and the evolution and synthesis of the underlying natural products.
- Publishes research papers, short communications, reviews, and commentaries.
- Delivers insights into trophic relationships, intra- and interspecific communication, competition, and other kinds of chemical communication.
- Trophic interactions will be considered if they are based on the transmission of natural products (e.g. fatty acids) through the food-chain.
- Considers manuscripts on the evolution and ecology of interactions mediated by non-volatile compounds.
- Mechanistic approaches may include the identification, biosynthesis and metabolism of substances that carry information and the elucidation of receptor and transduction systems using physiological, biochemical and molecular techniques.
- Welcomes papers describing the structure and functional morphology of organs involved in chemical communication.
