Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the final product of gene and protein expression, metabolites are the material basis of plant phenotypes; further, they can also affect gene expression and protein activity. Metabolism can distinguish the genotype effectively through its ability of reflect and amplify the small changes in the genome, transcriptome and proteome. With global climate change, the environment of plant growth has changed significantly, causing a series of changes in physiological and metabolic processes.
This Special Issue of Metabolites will publish reviews and original articles covering the latest developments in plant metabolic processes in different periods or organs under abiotic stresses, especially the quantitative analysis of the composition and content of metabolites under stress conditions, and also the molecular regulatory mechanisms of the metabolic process.

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. Metabolites is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
