About the journal

  Plant Physiology

 Established in 1926, Plant Physiology is one of the world's oldest and most well-respected international plant science journals. Its impact factor places it among the top 3 plant science research journals. It publishes primarily full-length papers containing new and significant information bearing on broad aspects of plant biology.

Plant Physiology bridges plant science and other fields such as molecular evolution, functional genomics, proteomics, structural biology, and biotechnology. In addition to full-length articles, Plant Physiology includes scientific correspondence, updates, and technology-breakthrough articles. 

Plant Physiology


Instructions to Authors

 Plant Physiology is an international journal that publishes papers containing new and significant information on broad aspects of plant biology. Areas of interest include, but are not restricted to, development, cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, bioenergetics, genetics and physiology, and an understanding of the plant as an entire organism and its interactions with the environment, symbionts, pathogens, and pests. The editors welcome original, full-length, comprehensive, and timely papers that represent advances in the understanding of how plants function in normal environments and when subjected to abiotic and biotic stresses. We also encourage the submission of manuscripts that bridge plant sciences and other fields such as molecular evolution, functional genomics, proteomics, molecular analysis of Mendelian and quantitative traits, structural biology, and biotechnology. Each manuscript submitted to Plant Physiology must not have been submitted as a printed article elsewhere (other than as an abstract of a poster or oral presentation).

Plant Physiology publishes full-length research articles as well as Editorials, Scientific Correspondence, Updates, Meeting Reports and articles on: Breakthrough Technologies, Genome Analysis, Bioinformatics, and Resources and Opportunities. The submission methods for each section follow.

Full-length research articles. These articles should be accompanied by an abstract of not more than 250 words. In deciding whether articles are suitable for the Journal, editors will be guided by the principles articulated below. The emphasis will always be on the extent to which the article contributes to the understanding of how plants develop and function. Articles that do not meet the criteria set forth by the editors may be declined without review. Articles must not exceed 30 double-spaced manuscript pages. Consideration to publish tables and figures as supplemental data online only is encouraged.

Because the methodology of plant science has come to encompass everything from biochemistry and chemistry to immunochemistry and microscopy, from structural biology to molecular biology, from genetics to live cell imaging, submissions are welcome regardless of experimental approach. To warrant publication in the Journal, a manuscript must provide new insights into biological processes, should address function, and must be interesting to a wide audience. The Journal will not, in general, publish papers that contain purely descriptive information, that are merely confirmatory, or are preliminary reports of partially completed or incompletely documented research findings of uncertain significance, or reports documenting well-known processes in a species in which this process has not yet been documented. Papers that report the purification of proteins or the cloning of genes must include functional aspects to be considered.

Full-length research articles should be assigned to one of the following categories:

RESEARCH AREA/ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Biochemical Processes/John A. Browse
Bioenergetics and Photosynthesis/Donald R. Ort
Cell Biology/Herman Hofte
Development/Phil Benfey
Environmental Stress and Adaptation to Stress/Don R. Ort
Genetics, Molecular Biology, and Gene Regulation/Joanne Chory
Molecular Evolution and Genomics/Susan R. Wessler
Plants Interacting with Other Organisms/Fred Ausubel
Signal Transduction and Hormone Action/Gloria M. Coruzzi
Ecophysiology and Whole Plant/Maarten Koornneef

Editorials. Editorials are usually solicited by the Editor-in-Chief to accompany a published article. However, uninvited Editorials and Letters to the Editor on topics of interest or controversy will be considered for publication. Authors should contact Natasha V. Raikhel (nraikhel@citrus.ucr.edu) before submission.

Breakthrough Technologies. Because technological innovations accelerate the rate of progress in our discipline, we encourage submission of manuscripts reporting new technology breakthroughs. These will be published when judged by the Associate Editor to represent advances of exceptional significance and broad applicability and interest. Authors who wish to submit to this category are should contact Rob Last (robertllast@hotmail.com).

Genome Analysis. These articles should report biologically relevant results from the analysis of large genomics-style data sets or new methods for assessing the value of genomics data. These types of analyses can help, among other things, to determine pathways not previously known to exist in plants and provide insight into evolution and genetic mechanisms. Authors should indicate in their cover letters that a manuscript should be considered for this section. Contact Rob Last (robertllast@hotmail.com) with any questions.

Bioinformatics. Recent advances and innovations in biology are exponentially accelerating the rate of data production. The increasing wealth of data and information challenges researchers to expand beyond their domain of expertise into areas of the unknown. To navigate this sea of data, better ways for managing, analyzing, and accessing information are needed. For the research community to achieve this goal, we need to develop our interdisciplinary forums for researchers from different backgrounds to share their ideas, innovations, and expertise. Plant Physiology solicits articles that address ways of solving problems in information management that are/may be applicable to plant biology. Submitted papers must be written in such a way that any scientist could follow and reproduce the results. If you have any suggestions or questions, contact Sue Rhee (rhee@acoma.stanford.edu), Rob Last (robertllast@hotmail.com) or Natasha Raikhel (nraikhel@citrus.ucr.edu).

Scientific Correspondence. These peer-reviewed, solicited-only, short contributions provide scientists with a forum to discuss new scientific ideas based on an analysis of the existing literature or on a few experiments. Acceptance of papers depends on the extent to which thinking is challenged into new directions. Contributions are limited to five double-spaced printed pages including tables and figures. Articles should not include abstracts; however, the main thrust of the contents has to be summarized in the first two sentences. Persons wishing to write a Scientific Correspondence article may contact Natasha Raikhel (nraikhel@citrus.ucr.edu) to make sure the proposed article fits the category.

Resources and Opportunities. The purpose of these articles is to make widely known what public resources are available to plant science and to recognize the significant contribution to plant science of a number of dedicated individuals. All Resources and Opportunites articles are solicited. Those scientists wishing to contribute an article to this section must first correspond with the Natasha Raikhel (nraikhel@citrus.ucr.edu) or any of the Journal's Associate Editors.

Updates are solicited reviews of recent progress and meant to be teaching tools. Scientists wishing to contribute an Update must first correspond with Rick Amasino (snofle@biochem.wisc.edu) and Ann M. Hirsch (ahirsch@ucla.edu) to solicit an invitation. All uninvited Updates will be returned to the author(s).

Meeting Report. One scientist, who is participating in a specific meeting, will be invited by Rick Amasino or Ann M. Hirsch to organize coverage and to be a meeting report coordinator. He/she will be encouraged to ask other scientists to be responsible for covering different sections of the meeting. The coordinator will be responsible for pulling together all of the summaries as a Meeting Report for submission to the Journal. All contributing scientists will be listed as co-authors.

SUBMISSION

Online Submission

Authors should submit manuscripts online at http://submit.plantphysiol.org. The Bench>Press submission system will prompt authors through the process. Help is also available from http://submit.plantphysiol.org/submission/submissionhelp and from the ASPB manuscript tracking office (301/251-0560, manuscripts@aspb.org). Online submission will ensure rapid handling of your paper. For peer review, word processing files are preferred and will be converted to PDF format. Alternatively, authors may create and submit their own PDF which will not be subjected to any conversion. Although there are no file size limitations, note that large files will take longer to upload and convert to PDF depending on the Internet connection. Please try to keep the maximum combined PDF file size to under 5 MB. If you are not satisfied with the final conversion results when the submission is proofed, the complete manuscript can be reloaded. Note that Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts must be imbedded in a PDF document file when submitted, otherwise the editorial office will not be able to view the submitted manuscript. Adobe Asian font pack can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrasianfontpack.html

TEXT REQUIREMENTS

Style and format. Manuscripts should be written in simple declarative sentences and must conform to accepted standards of English style and usage. Consult recent issues for style and placement of main headings, subheadings, and paragraph headings and for other details of format. Authors may wish to consult Scientific Style and Format, 6th Ed., 1994, Council of Biology Editors, Bethesda, MD, for current scientific and editorial conventions.

Nomenclature. In the abstract, at first mention in the text, and in "Materials and Methods," include complete botanical names (genus, species, authority for the binomial, and, when appropriate, cultivar) for all experimental plants. Do NOT use the genus name alone. Following first mentions, generic names should be abbreviated to the initial, except when confusion could arise by reference to genera with the same initial. Identify algae and microorganisms by a collection number or that of a comparable listing.

Abbreviations. Do not abbreviate words or measures in the title other than those standard for international usage. Chemical symbols can be used in the title, but spell out chemical elements. Units of measure can be abbreviated in the abstract. In the remainder of the text and the running head, use, without definition, the abbreviations listed at the end of these instructions. Introduce all other abbreviations parenthetically following the term both in the abstract (if used three times) and at first use of the term in the text. Abbreviations must be used three times in the text (this includes table and figure legends) or the term must be spelled out.

Units of measure. The metric system is standard, and SI v units must be used as much as possible. Use negative exponents to indicate units in the denominator when three or more units are used (e.g. µmol m-2 s-1 rather than µmol/m2/s).

Numbers and fractions. Write out numerals one through nine, except when used with units of measure. Write out all numbers or fractions that begin a sentence, or rephrase the sentence to avoid beginning with a numeral. Use the preposition "to" between numerals (do not use a dash): e.g. "13 to 22 min" and "3°C to 10°C." Exceptions: in tables, figures, graphs, legends, and within parentheses in the text, dashes are used. Decimals are preferred over fractions; however, when simple fractions are used, write them out as a hyphenated unit: "two-thirds."

Statistical treatment. When appropriate, include statistical analysis.  Define all statistical measures clearly. Identify the number of replications of experimental treatments and the number of times individual experiments were duplicated.

Ratios. In describing mixtures, use "to" if a ratio is stated in words: "the chloroform to methanol ratio"; use a colon if numerical ratio is provided: "chloroform:methanol (2:1, v/v)"; use a hyphen if numerical value is not given: "used in chloroform-methanol."

Growth room conditions. For reports of experiments in which growth rooms were used to simulate the natural environment, growth room conditions must be described according to the guidelines in Scientific Style and Format, Council of Biology Editors, 1994, 6th Ed., pp. 434-436.

Solutions. Describe solutions of common acids and bases in terms of normality (N), e.g. 1 N NaOH, and those of salts in terms of molarity (M). Express fractional concentrations by decimals: 0.1 N acetic acid (not N/10 acetic acid). Define % as (w/w), (w/v), or (v/v); 10% (w/v) signifies 10 g/100 mL. Express concentrations as micrograms per gram (µg g-1) or micrograms per milliliter (µg mL-1) rather than as parts per million (ppm). Even if they are only used once, all buffers should be spelled out at first use, followed by the abbreviation.

Gases. To indicate volume of gases, use microliters per liter (µL L-1) or nanoliters per liter (nL L-1) rather than ppm or ppb.

Ions. Represent ions as follows: Na+, Mn3+, Br-, PO43-.

Isotopically labeled compounds. For simple molecules, indicate the labeling by writing the chemical formulae, for example: 14CO2, H218O, 2H2O (or D2O), H235SO4. For other molecules, place the isotopic symbol in square brackets attached to the name or the formula without a hypen or space: [14C]glucose, [32P]ATP, [2H]C2H2, sodium [14C]lactate. In the case of generic names, write the isotope without brackets and follow with a hyphen: 131I-albumin, 14C-amino acids, 14C-photosynthate. Place letter and symbols indicating configuration and the like before the square bracket: D-[14C]glucose, L-[14C]alanine, alpha[14C]naphthaleneacetic acid.  Indicate the positions of isotopic labeling by arabic numerals, Greek letters, or prefixes placed in the square bracket and before the symbol of the element to which they are attached by hyphen: D-[3-14C]lactate, L-[2-14C]leucine, L-[2,3-14C]malate, [gamma-32P]ATP. Use the term U to indicate that the isotope is uniformly distributed among all six carbons: [U-14C]glucose.

Molecular weight and mass. Two equivalent expressions should be distinguished: "molecular weight" (Mr) is the ratio of the mass of a molecule to one-twelfth of the mass of carbon 12 and is, therefore, dimensionless. "Molecular mass" (the mass of one molecule of a substance) is not a ratio and can be expressed in daltons (D). Say "the molecular mass of X is 20,000 daltons" (20 kD) or "the molecular weight (Mr) is 20,000," but do not express Mr in daltons. Expressions such as "the 20-kD peptide" and "the mass of a band on a gel is 240 kD" are acceptable for an entity that is not a definable molecule.

Trade names and Suppliers. Whenever possible, use the generic name of equipment, chemicals, or other things used in research, followed by the trade name (capitalized) in parentheses with the name and location of the manufacturer. Avoid the use of trade names and code numbers of experimental chemical compounds used in research; rather, identify such compounds by common name (American Standards Association) if such a name exists, or by chemical name and structural formula.

Materials and Methods. This section should reference all standard procedures but must be complete enough so that results can be verified by other laboratories.

All papers must include a statement that "upon request, all novel materials described in this publication will be made available in a timely manner for non-commercial research purposes, subject to the requisite permission from any third-party owners of all or parts of the material. Obtaining any permissions will be the responsibility of the requestor."

Novel DNA sequences should be deposited in GenBank (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and accession numbers provided in the manuscript. In the case of data sets too large for inclusion in the manuscript (such as EST sequences, gene or genome annotations, genetic maps, microarray data, metabolic profiles, etc.), complete data sets must be made available as electronic supplementary material, available to reviewers at the time of submission, and linked to the manuscript at time of publication. If a number has not yet been assigned at the time of submission, please use x's as place holders to be updated later.

Literature cited. Cite all references in text by last names and year of publication. Text citations should be arranged from the earliest to most recent year, alphabetized by name within the same year. For entries in "Literature Cited," alphabetize by authors' last names and follow the styles below exactly for capitalization, punctuation, and order of elements. The accuracy in the "Literature Cited" section is the responsibility of the authors. The Journal will only proofread references for format. Any mistakes in reference formats may affect the conversion of html references.

Write out in full all one-word journal titles. Use the BIOSIS List of Serials for abbreviations of multiple-word journal titles; write out in full the names of journals not listed there. Unpublished data (submitted articles and articles in preparation) and personal communications are not acceptable as literature citations, so they must be referred to parenthetically in the text. Please include initials and last names of all authors. Articles that are "in press" may be so designated in "Literature Cited." Note: An article may only be referred to as "in press" if it has been accepted for publication; cite the journal in which the article will appear.

TABLES

1. Number tables consecutively with Roman numerals.

2. First mention of tables in the text must be in sequential order; indicate first mention of each table in margin of text.

3. Provide each table with a short, concise title followed by a legend that will make the general meaning of the table comprehensible without reference to the text.

4. Provide a descriptive heading for each column.

5. Do not separate data within the body of the table with new column headings or data. Do not arrange tables in sections labeled as, e.g. A or B. Instead, create another table to express data unconnected to or separate from that already presented. Authors will be contacted and asked to supply a new table if submitted in this form.

6. Use superscript lowercase letters to indicate footnotes. Asterisks or other symbols should not be used in place of the letters and will be changed accordingly.

7. For digitally submitted tables, please use Word's "create table" feature, with no tabbed text or tables created with spaces and drawn lines. Tables that don't need to be in color should not be submitted as figures (Tiff or Powerpoint). If submitting traditionally, place each table and its legend, double-spaced throughout, on a separate page and write the authors' names on the back of each page.

8. Submit complex or large tables as camera-ready figures. Do not use double spaces in camera-ready tables except where they are necessary for legibility.

Numerals. Check both tabular data and numerical values reported in the text for the proper number of significant figures. For decimals smaller than one, insert a zero before the decimal point: 0.349.

Powers. To avoid numbers with many digits, express such numbers as powers of 10. The unit may be changed by the use of prefixes such as "m" or "?" For example: enter "5" to express a g value of 0.005 under the heading g ?10-3 or a g value of 5,000 under the heading g ?103; conversely, express a concentration of 0.0015 M as 1.5 under the heading "concn (mM)."

Peer Review Processes in Bench>Press

Please see the “Instructions for Submission?section of this document.

  • A new manuscript submission is forwarded to the appropriate Associate Editor who then assigns it to a Monitoring Editor. The Monitoring Editor usually recommends two reviewers for each manuscript. Each reviewer evaluates the manuscript, suggests improvements, and recommends accepting or declining the paper. If the reviewers disagree, the paper may be sent to a third reviewer at the discretion of the monitoring editor. Authors are encouraged to suggest appropriate reviewers in their field.
  • A decision letter will be emailed to the corresponding author once the monitoring editor has made his or her decision. The critiques provided by the reviewers can be viewed online by the corresponding author at http://submit.plantphysiol.org in his or her Author Area in the Manuscripts with Decisions queue.
  • If the manuscript is accepted without revision, the editorial office will contact the corresponding author if additional files/documents are needed.
  • If the manuscript is accepted pending revisions, the corresponding author will upload the revised manuscript files using the Bench>Press system. A revised manuscript must be received preferably within 30 days, and no later than 60 days after the decision letter is sent. The manuscript will be assigned to the same editor unless authors specifically request otherwise. If the corresponding author fails to upload a revision in less than 60 days, the manuscript will be handled like a resubmission.
  • If the manuscript is declined, the resubmission must be submitted online and will be handled like a new manuscript. A resubmission must be noted as such with its previous tracking number.
  • A manuscript that is excellent but requires extensive revision will, as a matter of policy, be declined.
  • If at any time during the review process the corresponding author has a question regarding the status a manuscript or the nature of the peer review process, he or she should contact the manuscript coordinators at manuscripts@aspb.org.

Proof. The printer will deliver the page proofs to the author electronically. The printer will notify the corresponding author via e-mail to retrieve page proofs. The corresponding author will have access to one PDF file, which will contain: (a) 8 ?X 11-inch PDF pages (includes figures and tables) and (b) a reprint order form. The corresponding author will return to the printer by mail (a) original figures if applicable, (b) proofread and corrected original proof, and (c) the completed reprint order form. The author can expect to be notified and receive proofs via e-mail within 4 to 6 weeks of the accepted date.

POLICIES

Electronic Posting of Articles. Plant Physiology will review manuscripts that are posted on web sites as long as it is clearly stated beneath the title of the web preprint that it is under review by Plant Physiology or accepted for publication in a revised form. Authors may not post revised versions of their manuscripts while those papers remain under review by the Plant Physiology editorial board or after they have been accepted. However, authors may post the published version of their manuscripts after the manuscripts have appeared in the online version of the Journal. Authors do not need to request permission from ASPB to post their published manuscripts, but they must provide the proper citation and acknowledge ASPB as the copyright owner.

Authorship. Authorship credit should be based only on substantial contributions to (a) conception and design, or analysis and interpretation of data; and to (b) drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and on (c) final approval of the version to be published. Conditions a, b, and c must all be met. Any part of an article critical to its main conclusions must be the reponsibility of at least one author. Each author should have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for the content. (This statement is taken from the authorship policy adopted by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors and published in the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals, 1994.)

Distribution of Materials. Plant Physiology requires that all materials described in a manuscript be made freely available to academic investigators for non-commercial research purposes. All manuscripts submitted to Plant Physiology will be reviewed to ensure conformance with this policy. All papers must include a statement in Materials and Methods that "upon request, all novel materials described in this publication will be made available in a timely manner for non-commercial research purposes". No restrictions or conditions will be placed on the use of any materials described in this paper that would limit their use in non-commercial research purposes.

The provision of novel enzymes, antibodies and material products used in the manuscript could be reasonably limited in case that substantial effort is required for isolation. Any such limitation on available amounts should be stated in Materials and Methods. Novel DNA sequences should be deposited in GenBank and accession numbers provided in the manuscript. In the case of data sets too large for inclusion in the manuscript (such as EST sequences, gene or genome annotations, genetic maps, microarray data, metabolic profiles, etc.), complete data sets must be made available as electronic supplementary material, available to reviewers at the time of submission, and linked to the manuscript at time of publication.

Gene Nomenclature. The editorial board of Plant Physiology recognizes gene nomenclature as an important issue and fully supports adherence to convention for naming genes. It is the responsibility of each scientist in the community to see that conventions are maintained. As of the January 2002 issue, publication in Plant Physiology will require authors who are introducing new gene or protein nomenclature to submit a statement that outlines possible conflicts or confusions regarding their nomenclature and confirms that they have consulted the literature and other resources before naming their gene(s).

For Arabidopsis mutant genes, authors must follow the guidelines for naming genes outlined by Meinke and Koornneef (1997), and register new mutant gene symbols with David Meinke (see http://www.arabidopsis.org/links/nomenclature.html). This URL also provides other useful information and links on plant gene and protein classification.

Other resources that are available on plant gene nomenclature include http://mbclserver.rutgers.edu/CPGN/ (The Commission on Plant Gene Nomenclature), http://www.agron.missouri.edu/maize_nomenclature.html (A Standard for Maize Genetics Nomenclature), http://www.shigen.nig.ac.jp/rice/oryzabase/basic/geneName.shtml (Rules for Gene Symbols in Rice), http://wheat.pw.usda.gov/ggpages/wgc/98/ (Catalogue of Gene Symbols for Wheat).

Corrections to published articles. If necessary, corrections of significant errors in published articles will be published in a later issue of the Journal. Within two months after publication, authors are requested to bring any errors to the attention of the managing editor.

Microarray Data. The development of high throughput gene expression profiling methods has allowed for broad assessments of transcription and mRNA accumulation events in all organisms, including plants. With the incorporation of these technologies into current research efforts, the scientific community must adapt their publication standards to the new technologies as has occurred in the past with sequencing data, protein structure data, and gene nomenclature. The Microarray Gene Expression Data Society, MGED (http://www.mged.org) is an international organization involved in establishing standards for microarray data annotation and representation. One of its aims is to outline the minimum information required to unambiguously interpret microarray data and to subsequently allow independent verification of these data. The group has come up with a set of guidelines called Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment (MIAME; Brazma et al. 2001 Nature Genetics 29: 365-371) that specifies which data and contextual information should be supplied when microarray gene-expression data is published. The components of MIAME include experimental design, sample description, sample preparation, sample labeling, hybridization procedures, data measurements and specifications, and array design. A more detailed description of the guidelines can be found at: (http://www.mged.org/Workgroups/MIAME/miame_checklist.html). Some journals have begun to endorse or encourage MIAME compliance for papers describing the results of microarray experiments. It is expected that in the future, the majority of journals will require MIAME-compliant data in order to publish microarray-based results. Submitters of manuscripts to Plant Physiology that contain microarray data will be expected to describe the microarray experiments according to the MIAME guidelines and to submit their data to an online public repository. Authors requesting more information on the MIAME specification should visit the MGED website (http://www.mged.org/Workgroups/MIAME/miame.html) and review the specifications in Brazma et al. (2001). It should be noted that MIAME serves as a guide to the development of microarray databases (e.g. Microarray Gene Expression Object Model, MAGE-OM) and data exchange formats (e.g. Microarray Gene Expression Markup Language, MAGE-ML) and should not be confused as a data exchange format. More information about the development of databases and data exchange formats can be found on the MGED website (http://www.mged.org).

Fees and Charges. Starting with papers accepted for the January 2003 issue of Plant Physiology, authors will no longer be charged a $350 handling fee. Rather, corresponding authors will be assessed a per page charge of $55. Corresponding authors who are ASPB members will receive a $10 per page discount. Publication of an article in Plant Physiology is not contingent upon the author's ability to pay the charges. Authors may request that the editorial board waive page charges under special circumstances. For solicited articles, which include Updates, Scientific Correspondence, Resources and Opportunities, and Meeting Reports, handling fees are waived. Plant Physiology partially subsidizes the printing of color photographs. Author charges are $500 for the first color illustration, $500 for the second, and $250 for each additional color illustration thereafter. Under exceptional circumstances that are explained in writing to the managing editor, authors may request waiver of the color reproduction charges. Authors will need to justify that the color figure is essential for interpreting the results presented in the manuscript.
