Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Abiotic stresses are important environmental factors occasionally leading to enhanced production of secondary metabolites as well as different physiological and molecular responses. This Special Issue, entitled “The Interaction of Plant Biotic and Abiotic Stresses: From Genes to the Field”, aims to present recent progress of molecular and field experiments on abiotic stress. Biotic and abiotic stresses significantly affect the production as well as the quality of products. Abiotic stresses such as water stress, salt stress and heat stress are considered global crises due to their impact on the agricultural economy and terrestrial ecosystem productivity and threat to world food security. The integration of molecular, physiological and metabolite aspects has led to improvements in the quality of research as well as the functional output in this field.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Genes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
