BIOL 391 - OENB Junior Seminar: Citations and Citation Styles

"References listed in LITERATURE CITED—List citations in alphabetical order by author. Single-author titles precede multi-authored titles by the same senior author, regardless of date.

List works by the same author(s) chronologically, beginning with earliest date of publication. Spell out all author(s)’ names. Use “a”, “b” (determined alphabetically) for works with the same author(s) and year citation.

For multi-authored works, list the first seven authors and then “et al.”— unless there are only eight authors and then list all eight.

Type author names in citations in upper and lower case.... For formatting examples (note spacing, capitalizatio, italics, etc.), go to  https://cms.botany.org/file.php?file=SiteAssets/publications/ajb/ajb_Lit_Cited_Instructions.pdf."

Instructions provided for authors obtained from the publisher's website are listed below:

Citations within the text, they should be cited chronologically (oldest to newest),

The list of references should only include works that are cited in the text and that have been published or accepted for publication. Personal communications and unpublished works should only be mentioned in the text.

Do not use footnotes or endnotes as a substitute for a reference list.

Reference list entries should be alphabetized by the last names of the first author of each work. All journal names must be written out in full.
