Weed Research is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes topical and innovative papers on weed science, in the English language.  It is the official journal of the European Weed Research Society. Papers are taken on all aspects of weeds, defined as plants that impact adversely on economic, aesthetic or environmental aspects of any system.  Topics include, amongst others, weed biology and control, herbicides, invasive plant species in all environments, population and spatial biology, modelling, genetics, biodiversity and parasitic plants.  The journal welcomes submissions on work carried out in any part of the world.  In addition to research papers, the journal also seeks review articles and shorter insights papers covering personal views, new methods and breaking news in weed science.  The criteria Editors use for accepting manuscripts for publication are originality, relevance, scientific rigour and the clarity of presentation.  The journal accepts approximately 30% of submitted manuscripts and the time taken from submission to publication is 11.5 months.
