Effective Date: N/A Version: 1.0

1. Overview

Agrolife Frontiers maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward plagiarism in any form. Authors must ensure that their submitted manuscripts, books, or book chapters are entirely original works.

2. Similarity Threshold

All incoming submissions undergo an initial screening using advanced plagiarism detection software (such as Turnitin or Urkund). The overall similarity index must be less than 10%, with no single source exceeding 2%.

3. Consequences of Plagiarism

If plagiarism or duplicate publication is detected at any stage of the editorial review process, the submission will be immediately rejected, and the authors may be barred from publishing with Agrolife Frontiers in the future.
