File name: Please use the following sequence as a file name for your submitted
article: [Name].[Keyword(s)].[PPR], for example, [Mires.TlapiaFeeds.PPR]. Once

subsequent correspondence with the editor and be annexed to titles of papers
appearing on the IJA website.
Title page: Should include the title of the paper in bold Verdana 12 with major
words capitalized, author(s) name(s) in bold Verdana 10, and address(es) of the
institution(s) at which the study was conducted in italicized Verdana 10. The name of
the corresponding author should be followed by an asterisk. The asterisk will refer to
2. an asterisk in a footer showing the e-mail address of the corresponding author. An e-
mail address must be provided for the corresponding author as communication
between the editor and authors will be conducted exclusively by e-mail. The title

Abstract: A concise but complete summary of the work, not longer than 5% of the
manuscript. The abstract should be indented 1 cm from the right and left margins.
Text: The text should be organized in the following sections: Introduction, Materials
and Methods, Results, and a separate Discussion.
Authors are required to assure the following: (a) experiments must be reproducible;
(b) quantitative results must derive from no fewer than three replicates; and (c)
differences between replicates must not be due to random variation. The use of
abbreviations should be limited to those in common use and should be explained in
full once, at their first mention. Results should be reported only once, in either the
text or a table or a figure.
Acknowledgements: Individuals other than authors can be acknowledged by a
brief statement immediately following the text. Acknowledgements of grant support
should also be placed here.
References: Except for review articles, references should number no more than 25
(30 maximum). Only up-to-date references directly related to and serving as
background for the experimental work at hand should be cited. Avoid the use of
second hand citations that report on work performed by third parties. Theses and
dissertations may be cited only if they contain otherwise unpublished data. We
strongly request that authors review earlier issues of the IJA on our open
access Internet site http://www.siamb.org.il for relevant papers to cite.
Within the text, citations should be listed in chronological order, giving the name(s)
of the author(s) followed by the year of publication in parentheses. Work by more
