Editorial
In the qualitative leap that we expect the RBF will conquer in 2015, two factors stand out, among many others:
First :
-
The disclosure of the articles on CD: only in Portuguese, for articles sent by Brazilian authors, and also the articles sent internationally to the other authors.
-
In paper: a small print run to meet the indices, financiers and some libraries.
-
On line: in two versions, Portuguese and English or Spanish, when the RBF is sent for publication to www.scielo.br,
Second:
-
Increase the publication of good reviews, in order to gain greater international penetration, these reviews prepared by renowned Brazilian technicians, along with renowned foreign researchers.
-
We have consulted our advisors who promptly responded to our request, sending themes for major reviews, which are presented below:
-
Dormancy of fruit species of temperate climate and the influence of climate change.
-
Pineapple culture in the world.
-
Fruit trees Plants Seed Physiology in improving produced rootstocks.
-
Nutritional Quality of Fruits and Health Benefits.
-
Variability of floral phenology and dormancy kinetics in apple trees under contrasting climates-(a case study to modeling phenology in the warming context)
-
Cacao growing: The art of crops under full sunlight.
-
Mango Flowering Induction.
-
Sun damage in fruits: progress and future prospects.
-
Training systems and planting densities: The future Orchard.
-
Current advances in diseases epidemiology within fruit tree and wine canopies.
-
Fruit production in Organic System.
-
Issues that we considered of importance, waiting for authors:
-
Influence of global change in fruit trees (focusing on plant physiology and climate adaptation)
-
Advances in the improvement of fruit plants (focusing on categories changing, on which fruits traditionally of temperate climate, change to tropical climates and vice versa)
-
Advances in the Mango culture in the world
-
Exotic Fruits, the great growth
-
The use of agricultural machinery in the Brazilian fruit trees
-
Cautions at the design of the experiments
The issues mentioned above are deemed important and were listed in encouraging those with potential for treating low-income subjects of information, however, other topics may be suggested for evaluation.
The names of the authors invited to prepare the Future revisions were not mentioned, dependent upon confirmation, including the establishment of a schedule.
A Happy 2015 to the legion of our collaborators.
