Frontiers in Plant Science

期刊简介：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.

【译文】在一个不断变化的世界里，植物科学对于保障人类未来的福祉至关重要。植物提供氧气、食物、饲料、纤维和建筑材料。此外，它们还是工业和制药化学品的多样来源。植物对于生态系统的健康至关重要，对其理解对于学习如何管理和维护可持续的生物圈至关重要。植物科学极其跨学科，从农业科学到古植物学，从分子生理学到生态学。它利用计算机科学、光学、分子生物学和基因组学的最新发展来解决模型系统、农作物和生态系统中的挑战。植物科学研究探讨高等和低等植物及其在整个生物圈中与其他生物的相互作用的形式、功能、发育、多样性、繁殖、进化和用途。植物科学前沿欢迎来自基础到应用研究、从有机体到分子研究、从单株植物分析到种群和整个生态系统研究，以及从分子到生物物理到计算方法的所有植物科学领域的杰出贡献。植物科学前沿发表关于植物科学广泛研究领域的最杰出发现的文章。植物科学前沿的使命是将所有相关的植物科学领域汇集在一个平台上。
