Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Olive has been an important crop in the Mediterranean basin for thousands of years and it remains a strategic crop in Mediterranean countries, as well as in countries of the Middle East. The consumption of olive oil and table olives has expanded to countries all around the world, a process which has increased the production of this species in countries of South and North America and raised the interest in this species in Asia and Australia. Recently, the genome sequences of several cultivated varieties of olive and a wild olive were made available, facilitating the study of this species. This Special Issue of IJMS aims to highlight genomics and transcriptomics analyses in olive. Submitted research could include studies related to comparative genomics, domestication, genetic markers, genetic variance, or trait association to genes, and transcriptomics analyses to study gene expression or its regulation in processes of interest such as responses to biotic or abiotic stresses, fruit traits, reproductive biology, comparison of varieties, adaptation to different soil and climatic conditions, or other processes of interest for olive.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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.
