All figures submitted to the journal in color will be published in color online at no cost (unless the author specifically requests that their figures be in black and white online). Authors may choose to also publish their figures in color in the print journal for $600 per figure: you will be asked to approve this cost in an e-mail after your article is accepted, and will be issued an invoice at the time of publication. Authors who opt to publish black and white in print, should submit one figure caption that will work for both color and grayscale.Figures should be supplied in an electronic format at a suitable size for printing with the following resolutions: 600 dots per inch (dpi) for line drawings; 300 dpi for halftones and color; 600 dpi for combinations. We prefer figure files to be submitted as .tif files. Because of minimum resolution requirements, we cannot accept figures submitted as .jpg files.Please note that unacceptable figures will delay publication. Digital Expert software is available free from The Sheridan Group. Please use this program to check that electronic figures are in a format suitable for publishing. If the figures are not suitable the Digital Expert will offer instructions for fixing the figures.If your .tif figure files are very large, you may include .doc, .pdf, .ppt or .jpg files in your initial submission. Please note in your cover letter that you will submit the final files upon acceptance of your manuscript.SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALAll material to be considered as supplementary material must be submitted online at the same time as the main manuscript. Please indicate clearly the material intended as Supplementary Material upon submission. Also ensure that the supplementary material is referred to in the main manuscript at an appropriate point in the text.Please note that supplementary material will be available online only and will not be copyedited, so ensure that it is clearly and succinctly presented, and that the style of terms conforms with the rest of the paper. Also ensure that the presentation will work on any Internet browser. A maximum of 5 files is acceptable to make up the supplementary material unit for an article. The maximum size per file should not exceed 2 MB. Unlike figure files that will be typeset, supplementary figure files may be in any appropriate format (.doc, .jpg, etc).SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTSAll material to be considered for publication in the Journal of Heredity should be submitted in electronic form via the journals online submission system.

Charges for color figures in print cannot be waived. No paper will be rejected because of the lack of funds, but publication may be delayed if charges are not paid. Authors will receive a form with their page proofs showing the page charge and reprint prices.Page charges of one article per volume will be waived for authors who are members of the American Genetic Association. Cost of membership is currently $67.
