Aims and scope

PCTOC: Journal of Plant Biotechnology publishes original articles, reviews, and perspective papers covering novel discoveries. Papers must focus on timely research on plant biotechnology, should be concise, and of interest to a wide audience. Studies lacking adequate replication and statistical analysis will be rejected and not sent to reviewers.
We are interested in understanding and elucidating transcriptional and/or translational events involved in gene regulation as well as unraveling the genetic, molecular and physiological determinism of growth and differentiation of plant cells, tissues and organs cultured in vitro. Thus, articles dealing with a myriad of breakthrough technologies and discoveries in plant biology and biotechnology, including high-throughput analysis of gene function and expression, gene silencing and overexpression analyses, RNAi, siRNA, miRNA and CRISPR-Cas9 studies, among others are welcome.
We are also interested in practical and applied plant biotechnology, and we encourage authors to contribute articles on new insights into the process of in vitro propagation, regeneration, through organogenesis and/or somatic embryogenesis, synthetic seed technology, micrografting, conservation of plant biodiversity by SGS and cryopreservation, haploids and doubled haploids, gene transfer, gene flow, secondary metabolites, metabolic engineering, synthetic biology (biodesign), genome editing, and impact of transgene(s) dissemination into managed and unmanaged plant systems. Bioinformatic transcriptome analysis studies or those of gene structure may be considered, if linked to plant cell, tissue or organ culture in vitro.
