Decrypting the Mechanism of Protein Transcription in Plant Stress Resistance

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue welcomes submissions of studies on horticultural plants, including but not restricted to fruit trees, vegetables, flowers, and tea. Articles addressing fundamental questions around responses to stress resistance are welcome. Studies using biochemical, molecular, genetic, genomic, and physiological approaches are within the scope of this issue. Studies using cutting-edge technologies such as genomics, genome editing, and molecular breeding are also welcome. We believe that this Special Issue will be helpful to research on horticultural plants and to the improvement of horticultural plant tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses in future.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers).
