Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This second volume of this Special Issue follows on from the success of the first, and we invite you to publish your research in this edition of “Plant Physiology: From Omic Analysis toward Physiological Mechanism Research” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/life/special_issues/Omic_Plant_Physiology).
Plant physiology is influenced by a combination of internal and external factors that have led to remarkable and diverse functions. Recent progress in understanding the proximate basis of plant physiology has revealed a myriad of underlying mechanisms, ranging from genomics and epigenomics to transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. This Special Issue calls for review or research articles, short letters, and reports that provide novel insights into physiological mechanism research on plants. The Special Issue will be centered on current topics, including molecular and physiological mechanisms of character improvement, responses to biotic and abiotic stresses, hormonal and environmental signaling, and postharvest mechanisms. We welcome research using cutting-edge technologies such as genomics, ATAC-seq, and genome editing. We encourage the publication of research papers reporting significant innovative technologies and creative ideas related to plant physiology. In addition, we will invite experts in plant physiology to write up-to-date review articles to highlight recent advances and future perspectives.

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. Life 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.
