Plant Morphofunctional and Evolutionary Traits under a Climate Change Scenario

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that we are launching a Special Issue of Plants entitled “Plant Morphofunctional and Evolutionary Traits under a Climate Change Scenario”.

We would be delighted to receive your authoritative contribution, and we look forward to working together to collect high-quality research articles and review articles in all the fields related to the above topic.

Because the aim of this Special Issue is to illustrate, through selected works, cutting-edge research in "Plant Morphofunctional and Evolutionary Traits under a Climate Change Scenario", we encourage Editorial Board Members of our Section to contribute by sending papers reflecting the latest progress in their research field or to invite relevant experts and colleagues to do so.

In particular (but not exclusively), this Special Issue welcomes high-level manuscripts related to interactions between plants (and/or the abovementioned organisms) as well as the following:

Elevated temperature;

Excess (flooding) and/or lack of water (drought);

Hypoxia and/or anoxia;

Oxidative stress;

CO2, CH4, N2O, and other greenhouse gases;

Tropospheric ozone;

Volatile organic compounds (VOC);

Global change
