American Phytopathological Society Offers Free Access to Journal Articles
Category(-ies): Research Tools
In April 2005 the American Phytopathological Society began offering free access to articles in its journals, Phytopathology, Plant Disease, and Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions. Articles will be released online two years after publication. Currently articles published after 1997 are available. Earlier archived journals will be digitized and posted beginning in 2006.
