The Korean Journal of Plant Taxonomy focuses on the systematic study of plants, particularly those found in Korea and East Asia. Recent articles investigate plant diversity, phylogenetic relationships, and taxonomic revisions using morphological and molecular data, including plastid genomes. The journal also addresses plant nomenclature, the discovery of new species and distributions, and the development of DNA barcode reference libraries for plant identification and conservation.
