Journal of Tropical Crop Science

Aims & Scope

Journal of Tropical Crop Science publishes articles reporting research findings on in vivo and in vitro crop production and management under tropical conditions. JTCS's primary goal is to publish high-quality research that addresses the unique biological, environmental, and management challenges of tropical crops. We aim to provide a global platform for scientists to share studies and innovations across a broad spectrum of agronomy and horticulture, including crop breeding, nutrient management and soil health, seed technology, stress physiology, crop protection and biopesticides, and post-harvest technology of tropical cereals, vegetables, fruits, ornamentals, medicinal and plantation crops.

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.

Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
