My institution has a subscription to Plant Physiology, but I'm not able to see full text articles. I'm prompted for a username and password. Why is this happening?
When this happens, the IP address for your machine is not being recognized by our system. This is caused by one of three things:
Your institutional subscription has not been activated.
The person who activated the subscription did not enter all the IP addresses for your institution.
Your institution uses a proxy server, and we do not have the IP address for that server.
What should I do?
Send us Feedback so we can diagnose the problem.
Talk to your librarian, and let them know you are having trouble.
Who from my institution can access Plant Physiology?
A subscription allows for unrestricted access at one location/site. Any user connecting from an authorized computer on your institutional network is allowed access to Plant Physiology.
What is the definition of a "site"?
An institutional subscription authorizes use at a single "site" or location. For institutions with sites/locations in more than one city/state/country that are administered independently from one another, each location is considered a seperate site. For example, each of Monsanto's sites/locations is considered a separate site.
How does access work?
When someone attempts to use Plant Physiology, our server checks to see if the requesting computer is within the list of IP address provided by a subscribing institution. If it is, the user will be able to access all the services available to institutional subscribers. There are no usernames or passwords to remember, and there is currently no limit on the number of users from a subscribing institution who may access Plant Physiology simultaneously.
If readers want to access Plant Physiology from computers that are not part of the institutional network (e.g., through dial-in or telnet through a commercial Internet service provider) they can do so only through a member subscription.
What subscription packages are available?
Individual subscribers have access to tables of contents, abstracts, full text searching, full text display, document delivery, PDFs, links to Medline and GenBank, future tables of contents, and also have the advantage of having password access to Plant Physiology from any computer connected to the Internet.
Subscription instructions
Institutional Subscribers have access to tables of contents, abstracts, full text searching, full text display, PDFs, links to Medline and GenBank, future tables of contents, and document delivery. Access is limited to computers within a particular set of internet IP addresses.
Subscription Instructions
How can I tell if my institution has subscribed to Plant Physiology?
If your institution has a subscription, you'll automatically have access to the tables of contents, abstracts, full-text searching, full text display, PDFs, Medline and GenBank links, and future tables of contents. You'll also see a button at the top of the page confirming you're signed in as part of an institution.
Are back issues free?
Yes.
How can I access the Plant Physiology if I am not an ASPB member and I don't have access through an institutional subscription?
If your institution does not subscribe, you can purchase an individual subscription to the journal or get access as a benefit of ASPB membership. Subscribing Instructions
