Aims and Scope
Pedobiologia publishes peer reviewed articles describing original work in the field of soil ecology, which includes the study of soil organisms and their interactions with factors in their biotic and abiotic environments.
Analysis of biological structures, interactions, functions, and processes in soil is fundamental for understanding the dynamical nature of terrestrial ecosystems, a prerequisite for appropriate soil management. The scope of this journal consists of fundamental and applied aspects of soil ecology; key focal points include interactions among organisms in soil, organismal controls on soil processes, causes and consequences of soil biodiversity, and aboveground-belowground interactions.
We publish:

original research that tests clearly defined hypotheses addressing topics of current interest in soil ecology (including studies demonstrating nonsignificant effects);
descriptions of novel methodological approaches, or evaluations of current approaches, that address a clear need in soil ecology research;
innovative syntheses of the soil ecology literature, including metaanalyses, topical in depth reviews and short opinion/perspective pieces, and descriptions of original conceptual frameworks; and
short notes reporting novel observations of ecological significance.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Xiao Xiu was the first person to be rejected, and the editor-in-chief was JP. First, let me quote his article, which I did; then let me add data, which I did; after submission, it was sent back for revision, and I carefully made modifications according to the reviewer's comments; finally, using the reason of not adequately addressing the first reviewer's comments, it was rejected. The rejection process took 1 day, with the editor on the first day, and rejected on the second day; the submission process took nearly 8 months, causing mental exhaustion.

I have submitted it for a week and still haven't been assigned a number... May I ask if it was the same for you at the time? I am too anxious to graduate, I'm crying...
