Do I have to upload the original data? Xiao Huanhuan is cute. 11/2/2017 12:01:00 Published: A total of 2 papers have been published, the most recent one is about intestinal microbiota, with a 3-month first review, 3 reviewrs, and a total of 2 months for the second review and acceptance. Generally speaking, the reviewers are very picky and ask very detailed questions. All three of my reviewers think it's pretty good. It was given major revisions. It is very painful to make changes. In short, it's not easy to publish articles now. It seems like everyone's understanding of microbial ecology is getting deeper and deeper

Experience sharing: A total of 2 articles have been accepted, and recently one on intestinal microbiota was accepted. The first review took 3 months with 3 reviewers, and the second and third reviews took a total of 2 months for acceptance. Overall, the reviewers were very critical and asked detailed questions. All three reviewers thought it was good and gave a major revision. It was very painful to make the changes. In conclusion, it is now difficult to get articles published, as it seems everyone's understanding of microbial ecology is getting deeper

Experience sharing: My previous boss had three rejections when submitting. This time, after submitting for a month, we were asked to supplement experiments, which were rejected at first. However, after supplementing the experiments, we resubmitted two months later with a new manuscript. It took about a month for major revisions, followed by minor revisions a month later. The manuscript was accepted the day after the minor revisions. The questions raised were very detailed, careful, and professional

The review speed of FEMS Microbiol Ecol is moderate, and the first review usually comes back within a month

I mentioned this magazine, very arrogant and slow in speed, the articles are just so-so, at a slightly above average level. However, if your paper is of that standard and you submit it here, they may not necessarily publish it. So, sometimes people can be despicable, the less likely to publish your work, the more they think of themselves

Experience sharing: Journals in Europe are usually slow in review process, but it seems that reviewers in our field are very friendly and the acceptance rate is quite high

Review speed: 3.0 
Sharing experience: After submitting the manuscript, it was under review in 2 days (probably internal review by the journal), then it went through peer review (which lasted for 3 months, probably external review). After three months, the message came back, rejected. The acceptance rate of the journal is hard to say. However, my article does need some modifications, but I don't know why the editor didn't give me a chance for a major review (the editor also works in this field, so should have some understanding of the reviewers' comments). I feel that the review process is quite slow, taking three months to provide feedback. No other experiences yet

The editor has an arrogant attitude, the review process is slow, I do not recommend submitting to this journal

The journal of environmental microbiology asked for my review within 2 weeks, but they said my review was not written well. I have resubmitted it now

If it is handed over to the expert at the grinder, it will be disastrous. Last year, I submitted to ISME, waited for 100 days, sent emails to urge for review comments, and ended up being rejected. It's really frustrating! I wasted a lot of time and missed out on things

Two months, two review feedbacks, can't help it

Last year, I submitted to FEMS Microbiology Ecology, but I had to wait for three months before being rejected. It's really frustrating. The review process is indeed too slow. I heard that chemistry journals are quicker, but I'm not sure if that's true

The review process of FEMS microbiology ecology is relatively fast. I submitted an article to the journal in 2004 and received a response a little over a month later. However, the revisions were quite painful and took nearly two months. After the revisions were completed, I submitted the revised article and it was accepted the next day
