Persoonia is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access, full colour, fast-track journal, with papers published monthly. Published papers are immediately distributed to several libraries (for effective publication under the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature). Papers are also bound into two volumes per year (June and December), which can be ordered online. The journal strongly supports good practice policies, and requires herbarium voucher specimens to be deposited in a herbarium with an online database such as the National Herbarium of the Netherlands (L), cultures and DNA in long-term genetic resource collections such as the Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute, sequences in GenBank, alignments in TreeBASE, and taxonomic novelties in MycoBank. Persoonia aims to publish papers dealing with molecular systematics and evolution of fungi. A further aim is to promote fungal taxonomy by employing a polythetic approach to clarify the true phylogeny and relationships within the kingdom Fungi. The journal publishes high-quality papers elucidating known and novel fungal taxa at the DNA level, and also strives to present novel insights into evolutionary processes and relationships. Papers to be considered include research articles, topical and book reviews.

Persoonia是一本國際同行評審，開放獲取，全彩色，快速通訊的期刊，每月發表論文。已發表的論文立即分發給幾個圖書館（根據“國際植物命名法”進行有效發表）。論文每年也分為兩卷（6月和12月），可以在線訂購。該期刊強烈支持良好實踐政策，并要求將植物標本憑證標本存放在植物標本室中，該標本館具有在線數據庫，如荷蘭國家植物標本館（L），長期遺傳資源集合中的文化和DNA，如Westerdijk真菌生物多樣性研究所，GenBank中的序列，TreeBASE中的比對以及MycoBank中的分類新奇。?Persoonia旨在發表有關分子系統學和真菌進化的論文。進一步的目標是通過采用多重方法來闡明真菌分類，以澄清真菌在真菌中的真正系統發育和關系。該期刊發表了高質量的論文，闡述了DNA水平上已知和新的真菌類群，并努力提出對進化過程和關系的新見解。需要考慮的論文包括研究論文，主題和書評。
