ASPS—FPB Best Paper Award
Functional Plant Biology is pleased to offer an annual award for the best paper published in the Journal in each calendar year.
The award carries a prize of a personal one-year print+online subscription to FPB, a A$250 book voucher from CSIRO PUBLISHING, a framed reprint and a certificate.
To be eligible for the prize, the first author must be no more than 10 years post-PhD, and a member of the ASPS (or its national equivalent).
Reviewers are asked to nominate whether a manuscript is suitable for consideration for the prize, and nominations are then judged by the Executive Committee of the Australian Society of Plant Scientists to select a winner.
The winner of the award will be announced in an early issue of the journal each year.
