Legume Science is intended to be the leading international peer-review journal for the publication and dissemination of high-impact research from across the entire spectrum of legume science. The journal further supports communication of research outputs and collaboration among this interdisciplinary field as a gold open-access publication. Legume Science’s broad scientific scope covers all aspects of legume research. Areas of focus include plant science, agronomy, food science and technology, packaging, environmental science and sustainability, plant–microbe interactions, food security, human health, and nutrition. Papers describing research on the applications of legumes for both food and non-food uses will also be welcome. In addition to timely reviews and high-impact research articles, the journal will also be a prime source of news and views appraising the status and future visions of specific areas of legume science and rapid communications from community leaders. Papers submitted to Legume Science should be innovative, novel and offer new insights into the research area of legume science. Legume Science is published in 4 issues annually.
