The Journal publishes high-quality papers in the plant sciences. The journal welcomes manuscripts that identify fundamental mechanisms including those underpinning the improvement of plants for the sustainable production of food, fuel and renewable materials.
Papers cover a range of disciplines from molecular and cellular physiology and biochemistry through whole plant physiology to community physiology.
Areas of interest include but are not limited to:
- Plant Environment Interactions: plant responses to environmental variables including global change, biotic and abiotic stress, mineral nutrition;
- Photosynthesis and Metabolism: light capture, carbon uptake and assimilation, resource allocation, broader metabolism and nutrition;
- Crop Molecular Genetics: including evolution, diversity, domestication and trait and gene characterization;
- Plant Growth and Differentiation: integration of internal and external cues determining development and architecture, reproductive biology.
Every issue of the journal contains at least one 'Perspective' article. These are most commonly reviews of research areas, which are particularly exciting and important, topical or controversial. In addition to 12 regular issues, at least one Special Issue is published each year. These are collection of articles derived from a specialised meeting or conference session.
