Aim

The Journal of Plant and Phytological Research is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing fundamental and applied research in plant sciences. The journal aims to publish high-quality research that enhances understanding of plant structure, function, development, diversity, and interactions with the environment.

By integrating classical phytological studies with modern scientific approaches, the journal seeks to promote interdisciplinary research that supports agricultural sustainability, environmental conservation, and innovation in plant-based sciences.

Scope

The scope of the journal encompasses a broad range of topics related to plant and phytological sciences. The journal welcomes original research articles, review papers, experimental studies, and applied research reflecting current advances and emerging trends in plant science. The following areas highlight the primary focus of the journal but do not limit submissions to only these topics.

Plant Anatomy, Morphology, and Taxonomy

This area includes research on plant structure, form, classification, and systematics, including comparative morphology, anatomical studies, and modern taxonomic approaches integrating molecular data.

Plant Physiology and Development

The journal publishes studies on physiological processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, nutrient uptake, growth regulation, and developmental biology across different plant species.

Phytochemistry and Plant Biochemistry

Research focusing on plant secondary metabolites, biochemical pathways, natural products, and bioactive compounds with ecological, medicinal, or industrial relevance is welcomed.

Plant Genetics and Molecular Biology

This section covers genetic and molecular studies of plants, including gene expression, functional genomics, molecular markers, and genetic variation related to plant traits and adaptation.

Plant Ecology and Environmental Interactions

The journal encourages research on plant interactions with biotic and abiotic factors, ecosystem dynamics, climate change impacts, biodiversity, and conservation biology.

Agricultural and Applied Plant Sciences

Submissions may explore crop science, plant breeding, sustainable agriculture, soil–plant relationships, pest and disease management, and plant-based solutions for food security.

Medicinal and Economic Plants

This area includes studies on medicinal, aromatic, and economically important plants, covering ethnobotany, pharmacological potential, cultivation practices, and value-added plant products.

Plant Biotechnology and Tissue Culture

Research on plant biotechnology techniques such as tissue culture, micropropagation, genetic transformation, and in vitro conservation methods is welcomed.

Plant Stress Biology

The journal publishes research on plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, temperature extremes, pathogens, and adaptive mechanisms.

Conservation and Sustainable Use of Plant Resources

This section focuses on conservation strategies, sustainable utilization of plant resources, restoration ecology, and policy-related studies supporting plant biodiversity and ecosystem sustainability.
