The Journal of Phycology was founded in 1965 by the Phycological Society of America. All aspects of basic and applied research on algae are included to provide a common medium for the ecologist, physiologist, cell biologist, molecular biologist, morphologist, oceanographer, taxonomist, geneticist, and biochemist. The journal also welcomes research that emphasizes algal interactions with other organisms and the roles of algae as components of natural ecosystems.

Manuscript Transfer Program
Journal of Phycology works together with Plant-Environment Interactions, a Wiley open access journal, to enable rapid publication of good quality research. Plant-Environment Interactions aims to deliver progress in the plant and environmental sciences by publishing good quality research that builds on our understanding of plants and their environment, but is not necessarily novel. If unsuccessful in Journal of Phycology, authors will be offered the option of having their paper, along with any related peer reviews, automatically transferred to Plant-Environment Interactions for consideration.
