Caruso, Associate Professor at the University of Guelph (photo credit: H. Maherali).View Large ImageDownload PowerPointThe International Journal of Plant Sciences (IJPS) and its publisher, the University of Chicago Press, announce the selection of a new Editor in Chief (EIC) for the prestigious journal. Christina Caruso, associate professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of Guelph, will take over as EIC in 2018. She replaces Patrick Herendeen, who has served as EIC since 2013, when he took over leadership of the journal from Manfred Ruddat. Chris has been an editor for IJPS since 2013 and regularly publishes in the journal. In addition, she has served on the editorial boards of Oecologia, Evolutionary Ecology, and The American Naturalist. Chris is an evolutionary ecologist interested in the mechanisms and causes of natural selection in wild plant populations.IJPS has a long and distinguished history. The journal began in 1875 as Botanical Bulletin, which was changed to Botanical Gazette the following year. Botanical Gazette quickly became a leading journal in the plant sciences (including mycology and phycology) and published many influential papers. Until the American Journal of Botany was established in 1913, it was the responsibility of the Botanical Gazette to publish proceedings from the annual meeting of the Botanical Society of America. In 1992 the title was changed to International Journal of Plant Sciences.Under Pat’s leadership, IJPS both maintained its broad portfolio in the plant sciences—including genetics and genomics, developmental and cell biology, biochemistry and physiology, morphology and structure, systematics, plant-microbe interactions, paleobotany, evolution, biogeography, and ecology—and made a number of changes to serve the needs of authors and readers. Pat established the “Editors’ Choice” open-access designation, in which one article in each issue is selected by a vote of the editors to be designated open access, at no cost to the author. He established modestly priced optional open access for other articles in each issue. And he diversified the types of content in IJPS, including review papers, featured articles, and commentaries.As IJPS moves forward, Chris and the editorial team remain committed to high-quality, nonprofit scholarly publishing in all areas of the plant sciences. The journal will continue to waive all page charges and offer free color images when the figures usefully contribute to an article. However, looking ahead, the journal will make changes to better meet the needs of readers and authors. We will be working to promote articles published in IJPS on social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook and to develop a data-archiving policy. In anticipation of IJPS’s 150th anniversary in 2025, we will also be developing a new series of short commentaries describing influential papers from the IJPS archives and their relationship to contemporary research.We encourage authors and readers to contact the editorial office with ideas for papers and special issue topics and suggestions for strengthening the journal in the years to come.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
