Aim and Scope

The Journal of Applied Animal Biosciences (JAAB) is an international, peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary, open-access journal committed to publishing high-quality research that advances scientific knowledge and technological innovation across the fields of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Zoology, Dairy Science, and allied biological disciplines. The journal provides a global platform for researchers, academicians, veterinarians, animal scientists, policymakers, extension professionals, and industry stakeholders to disseminate novel findings that enhance animal health, productivity, welfare, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable livestock production.

JAAB welcomes original research articles, systematic reviews, review articles, meta-analyses, short communications, case reports, technical notes, methodological advances, and perspective papers that address fundamental, translational, and applied aspects of animal biosciences. The journal particularly encourages interdisciplinary research integrating molecular, cellular, organismal, environmental, and computational approaches to address contemporary challenges in animal agriculture, veterinary medicine, wildlife conservation, and One Health.

The journal covers, but is not limited to, the following thematic areas:

  • Veterinary basic and clinical sciences, including anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, histology, pathology, microbiology, immunology, parasitology, pharmacology, toxicology, medicine, surgery, diagnostic imaging and veterinary public health.
  • Animal genetics, genomics, breeding, reproductive biology, endocrinology, assisted reproductive technologies, biotechnology, phenomics, and precision breeding.
  • Animal nutrition, feed science, nutritional physiology, metabolic health, livestock and poultry production, welfare, behavior, and production management.
  • Dairy science, milk quality, dairy microbiology, processing technologies, functional dairy products, and value addition.
  • Zoology, wildlife biology, biodiversity conservation, taxonomy, systematics, evolutionary biology, ecology, aquatic animal sciences, fisheries, and zoo animal health.
  • One Health, epidemiology, zoonotic diseases, antimicrobial resistance, food safety, and environmental health.
  • Precision livestock farming, artificial intelligence, machine learning, sensor technologies, bioinformatics, digital agriculture, remote sensing, and advanced imaging applications.
  • Climate-resilient livestock systems, environmental physiology, sustainable animal production, indigenous animal genetic resources, conservation biology, and climate change adaptation. Livestock extension, animal husbandry, rural development, livestock economics, policy, innovation, and technology transfer
