Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the launch of the Collection of “Feature Papers in Plant Molecular Biology”, which is dedicated to showcasing high-quality research articles, short communications, and reviews that advance our understanding of plant molecular biology. We encourage our Section Editorial Board Members and the broader scientific community to contribute cutting-edge work or invite experts to share their latest breakthroughs.
This collection focuses on fundamental and applied research addressing key biological questions of broad interest, spanning the following topics:
- Molecular biology, genetics, and genomics;
- Bioinformatics, computational biology, and systems biology;
- Proteomics, transcriptomics, and multi-omics approaches;
- Biochemical/regulatory networks and biotechnology;
- Molecular physiology, plant breeding, and epigenetics;
- Primary/secondary metabolism and plant phylogeny;
- Forensic molecular botany and molecular evolution.
We welcome both experimental and theoretical studies, provided they meet rigorous scientific standards. Submissions should align closely with the themes above; work outside this scope may not be considered.

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 collection 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. Plants is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
