Aims and Scope
In an ever changing world, plant science is of the utmost importance for securing the future well-being of humankind. Plants provide oxygen, food, feed, fibers, and building materials. In addition, they are a diverse source of industrial and pharmaceutical chemicals. Plants are centrally important to the health of ecosystems, and their understanding is critical for learning how to manage and maintain a sustainable biosphere. Plant science is extremely interdisciplinary, reaching from agricultural science to paleobotany, and molecular physiology to ecology. It uses the latest developments in computer science, optics, molecular biology and genomics to address challenges in model systems, agricultural crops, and ecosystems. Plant science research inquires into the form, function, development, diversity, reproduction, evolution and uses of both higher and lower plants and their interactions with other organisms throughout the biosphere. Frontiers in Plant Science welcomes outstanding contributions in any field of plant science from basic to applied research, from organismal to molecular studies, from single plant analysis to studies of populations and whole ecosystems, and from molecular to biophysical to computational approaches.
Frontiers in Plant Science publishes articles on the most outstanding discoveries across a wide research spectrum of Plant Science. The mission of Frontiers in Plant Science is to bring all relevant Plant Science areas together on a single platform.

From submission to acceptance in 19 days, yes, you read it correctly. And the reviewers were truly professional and diligent. I received their comments and made revisions immediately. The manuscript was accepted on the same day it was resubmitted. Hard work pays off, as this paper was initially rejected by a top European journal in the field of botany. It was only unfortunate that I had only one reviewer who was not friendly. However, as they say, a gem will always shine. The reviewers and editors recognized the value of my work and gave me a smooth process, completing everything in just 19 days. One of the main reasons I chose to submit to this journal is because its impact factor has been steadily rising, soon reaching over 8. As a showcase journal for biology, plant science, and Frontiers, it has been a top-tier journal in the Chinese Academy of Sciences for many years. Its promotion to the first quartile is within reach.
