Phytopathologia Mediterranea is an international journal edited by the Mediterranean Phytopathological Union, and its mission continues to be the promotion of plant pathology in the Mediterranean region, the transfer of knowledge on diseases of Mediterranean crops, and to assist in the diagnosis and management of plant diseases associated with this region.
The journal deals with the main areas of plant pathology as epidemiology, control, biochemical and physiological aspects, application of molecular biology techniques, applied to fungi, bacteria, phytoplasmas, viruses, viroids, nematodes, etc. giving also a special attention to research on mycotoxins, biological and integrated management of plant diseases, and the use of natural substances in weed control.

The Editorial Board of Phytopathologia Mediterranea has recently been reorganised, under two Editors-in-Chief and with an increased number of editors. These include scientists from 16 countries representing highly respected researchers with a broad range of expertise.
The journal includes 3 issues per year in which Review papers, original Research papers and Short notes are published. New sections have been added as New or unusual disease reports, News and prospects, Commentary, Current topics, News and opinions, and Letters to the Editor. The expanded scope, along with the regular contributions of researchers, will enhance achievement of the Journal's goal of being an active communication and discussion forum on all aspects of plant pathology, especially relating to Mediterranean plants, but also more broadly across all facets of our science discipline. The journal also accepts Book reviews of interest for Mediterranean phytopathologists. Papers are published in English.
Phytopathologia Mediterranea is covered by CAB, BIOSIS, AGRIS, Chemical Abstracts, CSA and Scopus and many other databases. It is included in the Journal Citation Reports, with an ISI Impact Factor of 0.559 in the subject category Plant Sciences.
Phytopathologia Mediterranea is printed with the financial support of the Ministero per i Beni Culturali, Rome, Italy.
