Special Issue on Plant Physiology

Plant Physiology is a subdiscipline of botany concerned with the functioning, or physiology, of plants. In horticulture and agriculture along with food science, plant physiology is an important topic relating to fruits, vegetables, and other consumable parts of plants.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring plant physiology. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Photosynthesis
• Plant nutrition
• Plant metabolism and hormone functions
• Tropisms and nastic movements
• Photoperiodism, photomorphogenesis and circadian rhythms
• Seed germination and dormancy
• Stress physiology and biotic interactions
• Plant diseases
• Importance of plant physiology in agriculture

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue – Plant Physiology” should be selected during your submission.
