      The Indo-European debate has been going on for a century and a half. Initially confined to linguistics, race-basedanthropology and comparative mythology, it soon extended to archaeology, especially with the discovery of the Harappancivilization, and peripheral disciplines such as agriculture, archaeometallurgy or archaeoastronomy. The latest entrant in thefield, archaeogenetics, is currently all but claiming that it has finally laid to rest the whole issue of a hypothetical migrationof Indo-Aryan speakers to the Indian subcontinent in the second millennium BCE. This paper questions the finality of thisclaim by pointing to inherent limitations, methodological issues and occasional biases in current studies as well as in theinterpretation of archaeological evidence.

      Forthcoming Special issue.


    • To trigger further research on plant mitochondria, the Journal of Biosciences is bringing out a special issue titled "Plant Mitochondria: Properties and Interactions with Other Organelles".


      Plant mitochondria are quite distinct and have unique features, such as a cyanide-insensitive alternate pathway. They also interact with chloroplasts to optimize photosynthetic carbon assimilation.


      Submissions are welcome until 30 July 2023. The contributions can be original articles, short communications, reviews, or mini-reviews on any topic related to plant mitochondria.


      Authors can submit their articles online at https://www.editorialmanager.com/jbsc/default2.aspx
