中文簡介

化學(xué)生態(tài)學(xué)的目的是通過發(fā)表融合進化和/或生態(tài)學(xué)和化學(xué)的研究論文，促進和刺激化學(xué)生態(tài)學(xué)領(lǐng)域的基礎(chǔ)科學(xué)，以期增進我們對自然產(chǎn)物的生物學(xué)意義的理解。它的范圍包括進化生物學(xué)、生物相互作用的機制和化學(xué)以及潛在的自然產(chǎn)物的進化和合成。有關(guān)營養(yǎng)關(guān)系的進化和生態(tài)學(xué)、種內(nèi)和種間通訊、競爭以及所有類型的有機相互作用中其他種類的化學(xué)通訊的手稿將被認為適合出版。如果營養(yǎng)相互作用的生態(tài)學(xué)研究是建立在自然產(chǎn)物(例如脂肪酸)通過食物鏈傳播的信息的基礎(chǔ)上，那么也將考慮這些研究?；瘜W(xué)生態(tài)學(xué)進一步發(fā)表與非揮發(fā)性化合物(如黏附分泌物)介導(dǎo)的相互作用的進化和生態(tài)學(xué)有關(guān)的論文。機械方法可能包括識別、生物合成和代謝的物質(zhì)，攜帶信息和闡明受體和轉(zhuǎn)導(dǎo)系統(tǒng)使用生理、生化和分子技術(shù)。還將考慮描述參與化學(xué)通訊的器官的結(jié)構(gòu)和功能形態(tài)學(xué)的論文。

英文簡介

It is the aim of Chemoecology to promote and stimulate basic science in the field of chemical ecology by publishing research papers that integrate evolution and/or ecology and chemistry in an attempt to increase our understanding of the biological significance of natural products. Its scopes cover the evolutionary biology, mechanisms and chemistry of biotic interactions and the evolution and synthesis of the underlying natural products. Manuscripts on the evolution and ecology of trophic relationships, intra- and interspecific communication, competition, and other kinds of chemical communication in all types of organismic interactions will be considered suitable for publication. Ecological studies of trophic interactions will be considered also if they are based on the information of the transmission of natural products (e.g. fatty acids) through the food-chain. Chemoecology further publishes papers that relate to the evolution and ecology of interactions mediated by non-volatile compounds (e.g. adhesive secretions). Mechanistic approaches may include the identification, biosynthesis and metabolism of substances that carry information and the elucidation of receptor- and transduction systems using physiological, biochemical and molecular techniques. Papers describing the structure and functional morphology of organs involved in chemical communication will also be considered.
