Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Increasingly, the mitochondrial genomes of insects can be relatively easily obtained using high-throughput sequencing technology and, at the same time, mitochondrial gene expression in different insect species has emerged as a topic of great interest and a new research direction. This Special Issue of Insects seeks to attract more papers related to insect molecular evolution using mitochondrial genomics. Please note, this Special I. We hope to encourage authors to submit the papers focused on the mitochondrial gene expression of insects under different levels of environmental stress; for example, environmental pollutants or extreme temperatures. In this Special Issue, we also welcome works that explore the mitochondrial genomes of other polypod arthropoda such as centipedes, diplopods, or common house centipedes.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Insects is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
