Aim and Scope


Plant Science will publish in the minimum of time, manuscripts recommended by its referees in all areas of experimental plant biology with emphasis in the broad areas of genomics, proteomics, biochemistry (including enzymology), physiology, cell biology, development, genetics and molecular biology.

Manuscripts for full consideration should be written concisely and essentially as a final report. The main criteria for publication is that the manuscript must contain new and significant insights that lead to a better understanding of some aspect of fundamental plant biology. Papers centering on plant cell culture should be of interest to a wide audience and methods employed result in a substantial improvement over existing established techniques and approaches.
