Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Plant Development and Hormonal Signaling”, in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences is a commendable initiative. Well-known plant hormones (phytohormones) include Abscisic acid; Auxins; Brassinosteroids; Cytokinins; Ethylene; Gibberellins; Salicylic acid; and Strigolactones. Some small peptide hormones, Polyamines, Nitric oxide (NO), Triacontanol, and other molecules are also involved in intercellular signaling, regulating plant growth and development and the defense mechanism of plant cells. Therefore, hormone signaling plays an important role in a plant’s whole life, including the formation of organs, flowering, fruiting, biotic and abiotic stress, etc. We encourage researchers to contribute papers focused on the topics of interest for this Special Issue, including, but not limited to, plant hormones, interactions between hormones, and hormone regulation in plant development. Original research articles and full reviews, communications, and other article types are welcome.
Dr. Naoufal Lakhssassi
