Modern Plant Cell Biotechnology: From Genes to Structure

Dear Colleagues,

Modern plant cell biotechnology is a very diverse, multidisciplinary field of science. Biotechnological products are created by combining basic research in the field of biological sciences (biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, immunology) and engineering sciences, and are used on a large scale in health care (medicine, pharmaceutical industry and diagnostics), agriculture, environmental protection, production (including food, chemicals and cosmetics) and the development of alternative energy sources.

This Special Issue includes a wide range of topics linked with plant cell biotechnology, with a particular but not exclusive emphasis on the use of agriculturally important plants. Recent research related, for example, to genetic engineering techniques; modification, editing and regulation of gene expression; and other related topics are welcome.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
