Molecular Plant Sciences
Section Information
This section of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS) aims to rapidly publish contributions on all aspects of plant molecular biology, at gene, protein and metabolite levels, and to help plant scientists exchange knowledge and increase visibility of their studies toward specialists in other molecular aspects of life sciences. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- plant biophysics, biochemistry, and molecular biology
- plant cell biology
- plant physiology
- plant pathology
- plant computational and system biology
- plant developmental biology
- plant ecology
- plant biotechnology
- plant bioactive phytochemicals
- paleobotany
- forensic botany
- ethnobotany
