Plant Hormones in Growth, Development, and Regeneration

Dear Colleagues,

Plant hormones play a fundamental role in regulating growth, development and regeneration, coordinating cellular processes that shape plant life. This Plants Special Issue aims to synthesize cutting-edge research that explores the diverse roles of these signaling molecules. We invite submissions that address the complex mechanisms by which hormones such as auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, abscisic acid, ethylene and brassinosteroids influence various aspects of plant biology, from embryogenesis and organogenesis to stress responses and wound healing. We encourage studies that utilize advanced techniques in molecular biology, genetics, physiology and systems biology to unravel the complexity of hormone signaling pathways and their impact on plant plasticity and adaptability.

This collection will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in the field, highlighting the potential for translational applications in crop improvement and plant biotechnology. We invite the submission of original research articles, reviews, and perspectives that contribute to our understanding of plant hormone function.

• Growth and development;
• Regeneration;
• Hormone regulation;
• Signal transduction;
• Plant plasticity.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Plants is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
