Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Published for the first time in 2012, Plants will celebrate its 10th anniversary. When the inaugural issue was launched, Plants had already published nearly 3500 papers and reflected the diversity and richness of research in the field of Plant science. To mark this significant milestone and celebrate the achievements made throughout the years, we intend to publish a Special Issue entitled "10th Anniversary of Plants—Recent Advances and Perspectives”. In the past decade, the continuous support of the authors, editors, reviewers, as well as the readers, has resulted in noteworthy success and the achievement of a common goal, as well as the sustained reputation of the Plants in the world of science. In parallel with the development of our journal, great success, too, has been recorded across the field of Plant science itself, from the molecular to the ecosystem level, and many new findings are based on new methodological approaches. For these reasons, we want to realize a Special Issue to honor the collective efforts of all those who have contributed so far to the the success of the journal and the gathering of scientific aspects in Plant sciences related to current challenges and future innovation. Apart from the fact that this Special Issue will remain as a celebration of the anniversary, it should also serve as a guide for new discoveries in Plant science and thus for the development of the Journal. Based on all the above, I am honored to announce that top experts in this field will be encouraged to contribute papers to this Special Issue.
