Aims and Scope
The journal Microbial Ecology was founded more than 50 years ago by Dr. Ralph Mitchell, Gordon McKay Professor of Applied Biology at Harvard University in Cambridge, MA. The journal has evolved to become a premier location for the presentation of manuscripts that represent advances in the field of microbial ecology. The journal has become a dedicated international forum for the presentation of high-quality scientific investigations of how microorganisms interact with their environment, with each other and with their hosts. Microbial Ecology offers articles of original research in full paper and note formats, as well as brief reviews and topical position papers.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
The review process was fast, submitted on June 8th, and accepted on October 24th. Three reviewers provided dozens of professional comments during the first round of revision. It took two months for the revisions to be made and the paper was accepted after being resubmitted. The journal has a very low publication volume and lacks influence, but the overall quality of the articles is good and the review speed is fast. It is highly suitable for submitting papers in the field of environmental microbiology.
