Submission of Electronic Manuscripts
Journal of Dairy Science does not pennitsubmission of new manuscripts on floppy disk.However, authors interested in submitting thefinal version of the accepted manuscript on diskshould request instructions from the technicaleditor at the time of manuscript submission oracceptance. At present, only the text ofmanuscripts may be sent on disk; tables,figures, and mathematics must be sent in thetraditional manner.
Because technological advances are occurring rapidly in this area, requirements for preparation of manuscripts on floppy disk are subject to change and authors should verify thatthe instructions they have are the most currentset.
Measures and MathemaUcs
Measures must be in the metric system;however, US equivalents may be used in theOur Industry Today section with pennission ofthe editors.
Authors of papers containing mathematicsshould clearly indicate what material, if any, isto be typeset in boldface type. If boldface fontsare not available for manuscript preparation,boldface should be indicated using a yellowhighlighter.
Headings
Three classes of headings are used withinthe text of the manuscript.
Major headings are centered, all capitals,boldface, and consist of ABSTRACf, INTRODUCTION, MATERIALS AND METHODS,RESULTS, DISCUSSION (or RESULTS ANDDISCUSSION), CONCLUSIONS, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, REFERENCES, and,optionally, APPENDIX.

ABSTRACT
The abstract should review important objectives, materials, results, conclusions, and applications as concisely as possible. The abstractdisseminates scientific information through abstracting journals and through convenience forreaders. Use the following guidelines in preparing the abstract.
ASSOCIATION AFFAIRS 343
Limit to 200 words.Open with objectives unless they are clear in
the body of the paper. Do not repeat the title.Make intelligible without reference to com
plete paper. Use complete sentences and standard terms. Use no abbreviations except thefollowing: units of measure with digits, abbreviations defined on the inside front cover of thelournal, and chemical elements and commoncombinations of chemical elements.
Minimize amount of data in the abstract.Exclude statements of statistical probability.
Exclude references to other work.
KEY WORDS
List two to four key words for subject indexing the article. In most instances, these keywords should be taken from the title. Limitselection to four words or phrases, in lowercase, enclosed in parentheses, and separated bycommas.
ABBREVIATION KEY
Each manuscript should include an alphabetical key to all author-defined abbreviationsused in the body of the paper. The key shouldnot contain the abbreviations given on the inside cover of the Journal, symbols for chemicalelements, or abbreviations for standard units ofmeasure. The key should not contain itemsused only in an equation, table, or figure.
EXAMPLE: ~ = estradiol,
Fe-WP = Fe-whey protein,
GCGF = ground com gluten feed,
mtDNA = mitochrondrial DNA,
rbJFN = recombinant bovine interferon.
BODY OF THE PAPER
The body of the paper should contain anintroduction to the problem (questions, objectives, reasons for research along with relatedliterature); materials, methods, experimental design, and procedures; results, discussion, conclusions, and applications.
Major headings are ABSTRACf, INTRODUCTION, MATERIALS AND MElliODS,RESULTS, DISCUSSION (or RESULTS ANDDISCUSSION), CONCLUSIONS, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, REFERENCES, and,optionally, APPENDIX.
Statistical Analyses
Analyses must include appropriate statisticaltreatment of variation.
Sensory Data
Sensory data should comply with the "Statement of Policy in the Report of the Committeeon Sensory Data to the.Journal ManagementCommittee of the American Dairy Science Association, 1986," J. Dairy Sci. 69:298. Mentionof an enzyme should include EC number.
computer Software
Computer software should confonn to the"Report of ADSA Subcommittee on Standardsfor Publications with Reference to ComputerSoftware," J. Dairy Sci. 70:209.
Nomenclature for Microorganisms
All microorganisms must be named by genus and species. Current names appear in Bergey's Manual of Systemic Bacteriology, Volume 1 (1984) edited by N. R Kreig and J. G.Holt; Volume 2 (1986) edited by P.RA.Sheath, N. S. Mair, M. E. Sharpe, and J. G.Holt; Volume 3 (1989) edited by 1. T. Staley,M. P. Bryant, N. Pfeenning, and J. G. Holt; andVolume 4 (1989) edited by S. T. Williams. ME. Sharpe, and J. G. Holt; The Yeasts: A Taxonomic Study, 3rd edition (1984) edited byN.J.W. Kreger-van Rij; Ainsworth and Bisby'sDictionary of the Fungi, Including the Lichens,7th edition (1983) edited by D. L. Hawksworth,B. C. Sutton, and G. C. Ainsworth; and Classification and Nomenclature of Viruses preparedby the International Committee on Taxonomyof Viruses, edited by RE.F. Matthews andpublished in Intervirology 17:23-199 (1982).These documents should be used to determinethe correct names of the microorganisms. Also,names of bacteria that have been validated andpublished in the International Journal of Systemic Bacteriology since Bergey's Manual waspublished should be used.
The name of the genus must appear the firsttime that the microorganism is cited in theabstract, in the body of the paper, and in eachtable and figure legend. Thereafter, the genuscan be abbreviated by its first initial unless itwill be confused with other microorganisms
Jouma1 of Dairy Science Vol. 74, No.1, 1991
344 JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE
cited in the paper. The names of all microorganisms should be underlined or typed in italicsin the manuscript. Specific strain designationsand numbers should be used where appropriate.
For microorganisms that are genetic variantsof a parent strain, the genotypic and phenotypicproperties should be cited according to the procedures described by Demerec et at (1966) inGenetics 54:61-76. Phenotypes should be identified by three letters; the first is capitalized.Genotypes should be identified by three lowercase italic letters. Superscript plus (+) signs areused to refer to a wild-type. The serial isolationnumber is placed after the locus symbol formutations. The delta symbol is used to indicatedeletions. Nomenclature for bacterial plasmidsshould be cited according to Novick et al.(1976) in Bacteriol. Rev. 40:168-189.
AbbrevlaUons
Abbreviations are not allowed in the title.Do not begin a sentence with an abbreviation.
Define first use of abbreviations in text andin each table and figure.
List abbreviations and their definitions in theabbreviation key. Exceptions are those wordsdermed inside the front cover of the Journal,units of measure with digits, and chemical symbols.
Style and Format
Mention of any conunercial product shouldinclude manufacturer, city, and state (and country, if outside the US). This information shouldbe included parenthetically in the text.
Note that "and/or" is not permitted; choosethe more appropriate meaning or use "x or y orboth."
. Use the slant line only when it means "per"~th nU~bered units of measure or "divide by"m equations. Use only one slant line in a givenexpression: e.g., 2.3 kg/d per cow. The slantline may not be used to indicate ratios, mixtures, or substitute for the words "and" or "or".
Footnote numbers should follow punctuation(e.g., Jones,l or " .end of sentence.2).
Use "to" instead of a hypen to indicaterange.
Do not use italics for foreign words andphrases (e.g., in vivo, ad libitum, etc.)
Indicate probability with a capital italic P,e.g., P < .05.
Journal of Dairy Science Vol. 74, No. I, 1991
Insert spaces around all signs of operations(equal signs, minuses, pluses, times signs, andgreater than or less than signs) when thesesigns occur between two items.
Do not use zeros left of decimal in text,tables, or figures.
Use the final comma for items in a series.Restrict use of "while" and "since" to mean
ings related to time. Appropriate substitutesinclude "and", "but", or "whereas" for "while";and "because" or "although" for "since".
REFERENCES
List a minimum of pertinent references(generally 30 or fewer).
References are listed alphabetically by author. Secondarily, use chronological order forpapers with identical authorship.
Use the English system of alphabetizing,e.g., deVries, van Waller (not Vries, de orWaller, van).
Number entries consecutively and cite in thetext by number in parentheses (space betweenmultiple reference numbers, e.g., 1,3,5,6). Donot use periods after entry numbers.
The sequence is names of authors (invert~ame of first author only), year of publication,tItle (lower case letters), abbreviated name ofperiodical, volume, and number of first page.Include name and address (city and state orcountry) of publisher for books. Provide publisher (city and state or country) for conferenceproceedings and conform to either book orjournal format in accordance with the originaldocument. Follow style and form of currentJournal. Serial Sources for the Biosis DataBase, Volume 1990, indicates appropriate abbreviations.
All reference entries must be cited in thebody of the paper. References must be typeddouble spaced. Abstracts and articles from nonpeer-reviewed magazines and proceedingsshould be used sparingly as references. Use ofabstracts published more than 3 years earlier isstrongly discouraged.. Personal communications and any unpub
lished references should be mentioned parenthetically in the text. They may not appear inthe references section.

computer-Generated Figures
Computer-generated figures are acceptable ifthey meet journal specifications for line width,symbols, and layout. The original printout offigures (rather than xerox copies) is required;do not make glossy photographs of computerprinted figures. Use the highest resolu~on
printer available to you; take care that lettenngand symbols are of sufficient size, scale, andresolution to be legible after reduction. Figuresshould be uniform in scale and in line density(boldness). On line graphs, symbols should notcontain other symbols within them (e.g., a circle within a triangle) to indicate data points,because symbols will fill in upon reduction.When possible, symbols should be defined inthe caption; when the legend is a part of thefigure, it should appear within the axes butoutside the data field Lettering on the y-axisshould be printed vertically along the axis (seeFigure 1). Small dot or line patterns or grayshading will not reproduce evenly. Zerospreceding decimals should be deleted either bymanipulating the software or by manuallyremoving the zeros. Three-dimensional figures,although attractive, often obscure the data presentation; if three-dimensional bar graphs areused, indicate which portion of the bar is to beused for making comparisons.
Electron Micrographs
Authors should submit original plates andhigh grade photographs for reviewers. Micrographs should be submitted as near as possible

to desired published size. If micrographs arereduced during the publication process, authorsneed to alter magnification amounts in the figure caption to reflect percentage of reduction.
Color illustrations
Authors should submit specifications to thetechnical editor for estimate of cost as early inthe publication process as possible. Upon receipt of estimate, authors must indicate in writing that they are willing to pay the additionalcost of color reproduction.
TABLES
Tables should be self explanatory and maybe a most effective way to organize extensivedata. Refer to the eBE Style Manual (pp.74-80).
Type each table on bond paper by 21.6 by27.9 cm and place at the end of manuscript.Propose placement of tables in text by circlednote in left margin of typed manuscript.
When possible, tables should be organizedto fit across, not lengthwise, on the page. Beaware of the dimensions of the printed page

when planning tables.Place number and title on the same line
above the table (as shown in sample table). Seeformat of current journal
Use no vertical lines and few horizontallines.
Limit digits to the minimum for meaningfulcomparison within the accuracy of the methods.
Do not use leading zeros (zeros to the left ofdecimals in numbers less than one) in text,tables, or figures.
For each table, spell out first use of abbreviations. Abbreviations should conform to Journal style.
Table Footnotes
Footnotes to tables should be numerals.Superscript letters should be used for statisticalanalyses within the body of the table. Probability may be indicated: tp < .10, *p < .05, **p <.01, ***p < .001.
