Aims and Scope
The Journal of Plant Growth Regulation is an international publication featuring original articles on all aspects of plant growth and development. We welcome manuscripts reporting question-based research on various aspects of plant growth and development using hormonal, physiological, environmental, genetic, biophysical, developmental and/or molecular approaches.

The journal also publishes timely reviews on highly relevant areas and/or studies in plant growth and development, including interdisciplinary work with an emphasis on plant growth, plant hormones and plant pathology or abiotic stress.

In addition, the journal features occasional thematic issues with special guest editors, as well as brief communications describing novel techniques and meeting reports.

The journal is unlikely to accept manuscripts that are purely descriptive in nature or reports work with simple tissue culture without attempting to investigate the underlying mechanisms of plant growth regulation, those that focus exclusively on microbial communities, or deal with the (elicitation by plant hormones of) synthesis of secondary metabolites.

2022-3-14, Reminder for submission
2022-3-17, Rejection
Three external reviewers, one major revision, one minor revision, and another rejection due to the absence of field and experimental photos in the paper. The editor provided an opportunity for resubmission, but it will still be sent back to the same reviewers. Rejection reasons are varied, and I was in a hurry to graduate, so I didn't submit again. Be cautious about submitting in a hurry to graduate!

It has been more than ten days since the submission, and the editor is still not assigned. Other journals usually send for review the next day, so there is a significant difference. After communicating with my foreign supervisor, I found out that this journal has a very slow review process. I do not recommend submitting to it. I feel like crying but have no tears!
