Journal of Animal Science (JAS)- Papers in Press are accepted peer-reviewed papers published online in manuscript form. These papers have not been copyedited and have not yet appeared in a printed issue of the journal. JAS - Papers in Press are citable and establish date of first publication. The official publication date appears below each title, followed by the article's unique Digital Object Identifier (DOI). JAS - Papers in Press are published online within two weeks of acceptance, thereby reducing time from acceptance to publication by three to four months.
