Now monthly! From its inception in 1957, this international cytogenetics journal has catered to the research areas of the members of the Genetics Society of Canada; traditionally, these have included agriculture, entomology, genetics/cytogenetics, and evolutionary mechanisms. The contents of the journal have evolved as contributors developed new technologies and interests. A 20-member Editorial Board is composed of scientists from around the world. Reviews and commentary from respected experts are often featured.

The Genetics Society of Canada has chosen Genome as its principal medium for the publication of scientific papers.
Dr. P.B. Moens — York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
For several decades Dr. Moens has been an active researcher in the field of meiosis; specifically, the structure, behaviour and biochemical composition of meiotic chromosome cores. Since many of the aspects are conserved in evolution, a variety of organisms, fungi, plant, insects and mammals have been investigated.
