**Preface to "Plant Genomics"**

Plant genomics is a rapidly growing field that has revolutionized our understanding of the genetic makeup and biological processes of plant species. The advancements in genomic technologies have enabled researchers to study the entire genetic composition of plants, including the function and regulation of genes, genome structure, and evolution. The impact of plant genomics is far-reaching and has significant implications for agriculture, environment, and human health.

In this Special Issue Reprint "Plant Genomics", we are pleased to present 28 papers that showcase the latest research in plant genomics. These papers cover a wide range of topics, including genome-wide association study and genomic prediction, genome sequencing, gene expression in response to abiotic stresses, genome-wide screening, and characterization of various gene families. Moreover, they involve more than 20 different plant species, highlighting the diversity of plants and the importance of studying their genomes.

The papers in this Special Issue have been contributed by leading experts in the field, who have used cutting-edge techniques and approaches to provide insights into various aspects of plant genomics. We hope that these papers will stimulate further research and inspire new collaborations that will enhance our understanding of plant biology and contribute to the development of sustainable agriculture.

We would like to express our gratitude to all the authors who have contributed their work to this Special Issue, as well as the reviewers who have provided valuable feedback and ensured the quality of the papers. We also thank the editorial team for their support and dedication in bringing this Special Issue to fruition.

We hope that this Special Issue will serve as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals interested in plant genomics and related fields.
