Aims and scope

Stress Biology aims to be a leading international academic journal, dedicated to promoting a systems-level understanding of stress biology by publishing cutting-edge research and systematic reviews on the broadest aspects of stress biology.

Stress Biology publishes original high-quality research of all aspects of stress biology, including, but not limited to, work that (1) provides fundamental insights into the understanding of responses of plants, microorganisms and animals to abiotic and biotic stresses; (2) elucidates the mechanisms underlying the adaptation and resistance of plants, microorganisms and animals to biotic and abiotic stresses; and (3) uses biotechnological and other strategies to improve the resistance of plants, microorganisms and animals to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Topics covered by the journal include physiology, molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, pathology, ecology, genomics, epigenetics, gene editing, stress resistance breeding, biotechnology, and so on.

Article types include original paper, short communications, reviews, highlights, letters to the editor, editorials.
