Plant Ecology and Diversity publishes research on plant populations, communities, and ecosystems. Articles investigate the impacts of environmental changes, including climate and human activities, on plant diversity and genetic structure. Studies also examine the role of ecological processes like herbivory and fire, as well as agricultural practices and habitat management, in shaping plant communities. The journal features research on plant evolution, hybridization, and recolonization patterns, often using genetic and phylogenetic analyses.
