Invitation to Editorial Board of Plant Science Today

In two years, Plant Science Today (ISSN 2348-1900) has rapidly grown into a highly successful journal, publishing over 70 high quality research articles which span all subject areas of plant science.

For this reason, we are looking to expand our Editorial Board.

The extensive team of editors will be responsible for handling submissions through peer review; they will invite reviewers and use the reports to offer advice to the Editor in Chief on accept/reject decisions.

Academies are asked to assess manuscripts for their methodological quality and determine whether the manuscripts add new results to the available body of literature. Plant Science Today will not reject any manuscript because it is of limited interest: as long as it is sound, new, and has passed peer-review then it can be accepted.

Editors should also ensure that manuscripts submitted to Plant Science Today follow all applicable scientific standards, and discipline-specific best practice guidelines. Guidance on handling manuscripts will be provided.

Plant Science Today has an inclusive scope and will consider manuscripts from all disciplines of plant science.

Editorial and Review Board members are listed on our journal homepage.

Applications:
To represent your research community as part of our board of international editors, please first download an application form. Existing Editorial Board members are also requested to submit applications.

Send the completed form with an updated CV to pst@horizonepublishing.com (Editorial Manager) by 25th December 2015.

Applications for all research areas in botany are invited, but acceptance is subject to existing topic coverage.

Thank you very much for supporting Plant Science Today.
