Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The normal growth and development of plants are affected by their various external environments. Plants have evolved to have significant developmental plasticity to ensure their continuous adaptation to the dynamic environment. In recent years, research has rapidly advanced out understanding of the molecular biology of these processes.
This Special Issue on the molecular biology of plant growth and development aims to showcase our current understanding of this area with a collection of high-quality papers uncovering the molecular and biochemical mechanisms of plant growth and development. In addition, research articles related to improving crop yields and review articles on plant growth and development are also welcome.

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.
