The journal runs a single blind review process. All contributions are initially assessed by the editor in chief (EIC) for suitability for the journal. Manuscripts deemed suitable are then sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess the scientific quality of the paper. The EIC is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of manuscripts. The official journal language is English. We have requested an ISSN number and are presently sending printed copies of each paper to 10 international libraries until this is received to fulfill the requirements of the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants. All content loaded to MycoKing is checked for plagiarism by turnitin.

MycoKing publishes an yearly volume from January to December each year.
