Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the regulation of plant growth, encompassing studies on plant hormones, microbial interactions, and responses to environmental stresses. Research investigates how various factors influence plant development, yield, and metabolic processes, including the role of phytohormones, plant growth-promoting microorganisms, and genetic modifications in enhancing crop resilience and productivity. The scope also includes the impact of abiotic stresses like salinity, drought, and heavy metals on plant physiology and the molecular mechanisms underlying these responses.
