Ovozoa: Journal of Animal Reproduction

Aims & Scope

Ovozoa: Journal of Animal Reproduction publishes original scientific papers in the field of Basic Research, Biotechnology, Applied Research and Review Articles, with the goal of contributing to a better understanding of phenomena related to animal reproduction. The scope of the Ovozoa: Journal of Animal Reproduction applies to students, lecturer, researchers and practitioners in the fields of veterinary, biology and animal science reproduction. The chief editor and editors will evaluate the manuscripts submitted at the prequalification stage based on the format suitability and substance qualifications, and to scan for instances of plagiarism present in manuscripts will be conducted by means of Turnitin software. If there is a format discrepancy, the manuscript will be sent back to the corresponding author to be rewritten under the Ovozoa format. However, if there is a discrepancy in substance qualifications (not included in Ovozoa focus and scope), the manuscript is rejected without further review. The decision will change the status of the manuscript in the OJS. The chief editor will notify the corresponding author about the decision. The prequalification stage constitutes a swift assessment conducted by the editorial team, focusing on the quality of the submitted manuscripts. This phase is pivotal for screening submissions to ensure they meet the requisite standards of excellence. Manuscripts that pass the prequalification will be evaluated by two or three reviewers determined by the chief editor and editors. The chief editor will send the manuscript to reviewers via OJS. The reviewers answer whether they would like to review the manuscript directly via OJS. The reviewers check the manuscript based on predetermined criteria and returns it with recommendations to the chief editor via OJS. If one reviewer recommends being accepted and another reviewer recommends being rejected, then the chief editor will ask the third reviewer or three editors to decide on the accep

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
