About the journal

About the Journal

Molecular Plant is a newly founded international journal that publishes significant findings in plant biology, focusing broadly on cellular biology, physiology, molecular biology, genetics, development, and evolution. The journal features a strong international editorial board and is set to become a top-tier journal in the field, using rigorous review to limit the journal to papers that provide novel insights of high impact. We particularly encourage submissions of original research that is highly novel but not necessarily fully-developed. Contributions may comprise Research Articles, Review Articles, Methods, Editorials, and Commentaries.

To set the standard for its future, most of the papers published in Molecular Plant's first two years were commissioned by editorial members and published in Special Issues on particularly exciting and important topics in current plant biology. Now that the journal's standard has been established, Molecular Plant now receives large numbers of high-quality unsolicited submissions, which have been published under the heading 'Topics of General Interest' since May 2009. The journal is steadily increasing the proportion of regular submissions published, and we strongly encourage plant biology authors to submit their best work to the journal. We pride ourselves on our rapid publication times, making every effort to ensure that papers are fully reviewed within four weeks and that all accepted papers are published online in their final format within four weeks of arrival of the finished manuscript at the publisher.

Instructions to Authors

Manuscript Submission

Before initiating the submission process, the instructions below should be read carefully to ensure that the article complies with Molecular Plant standards. Even if authors have previously read them, it is strongly recommended that these pages be reread in their entirety, as they are updated periodically.

Authors should submit manuscripts online at http://submit.mplant.oxfordjournals.org/. The Bench>Press submission system will prompt authors through the process. Help is also available from http://submit.mplant.oxfordjournals.org/submission/submissionhelp and from the editorial office (Tel: +86 21-54922858 or +1 415 338-6193; Email: staff-mplant@sibs.ac.cn). For manuscript submission, a manuscript file in Microsoft Word (or some other word processing form) is required and will be automatically converted to a PDF by the Bench>Press submission system. Alternatively, authors may create and submit their own PDF which will not be subjected to any conversion. Although there are no file size limitations, note that large files will take longer to upload and convert to PDF depending on the Internet connection. Please try to keep the maximum combined PDF file size to less than 5 MB.

If you are not satisfied with the final conversion results when the submission is proofed, the complete manuscript can be reloaded as a PDF file.

Authorship

Each author must have contributed substantively to justify inclusion as an author; any other contributors should instead be acknowledged appropriately in the Acknowledgments section. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all authors have made bona fide, substantive contributions to the research and have seen and approved the manuscript in final form prior to submission.

Manuscript Preparation and Organisation

Manuscripts should follow Molecular Plant style, be written in concise and grammatically correct English, and be presented in a manner and at a level that will be accessible to the broad readership of the journal, not specialists. The use of abbreviations and jargon should be avoided, and terms that are not widely known should be explained clearly at first use.

Consult a current issue of Molecular Plant for guidance on format, organization, and preparation of figures, legends, tables, and references. In general, there are no limits to the length of manuscripts published in Molecular Plant; however, the editors may request shortening of papers they deem unnecessarily long. Manuscripts should be prepared in Microsoft Word with 1.5 line spacing and in 12 point type; use symbol font for Greek characters to avoid inadvertent character substitutions. Please do not use Chinese, Japanese or Korean fonts. Figures should be prepared digitally (see below).

Formats accepted for the manuscript file are Word, WordPerfect, and PDF (Portable Document File). For Word processing files, Times, Times New Roman, Courier, Helvetica and Arial are the recommended fonts; for best quality conversions of special characters and symbols, use the Symbol font. Image and table file formats accepted are GIF, TIFF, EPS and JPEG. For tables, the system also accepts the most common word processing formats. Formats not supported include the following: Bitmap (.bmp), PICT (.pict), Excel (.xls), Photoshop (.psd), Canvas (.cnv), CorelDRAW (.cdr) and locked or encrypted PDFs. Multi-page PowerPoint files (.ppt) are not supported; one slide per file is acceptable.

Organize manuscripts in the following order: Title Page, Abstract, Introduction, Results, Discussion, Methods, Acknowledgments, Figure Legends, Tables, and References. Note that when submitting your manuscript the References must be placed at the end of your document file. Tables should be included as part of your manuscript file. Figures and regular Supplementary data (Supplementary text, figures and small tables) should be sent as separate files and not as part of the manuscript. See the sections on Figures and Supplementary Data below for more details.

Corresponding authors must declare if they or their co-authors have any conflicts of interest to declare, and to provide details of these by submitting a completed Conflict of Interest form to the Editorial Office. If the Corresponding author is unable to confirm this information on behalf of all co-authors, the authors in question will then be required to submit a completed Conflict of Interest form. It is the Corresponding author鈥檚 responsibility to ensure that all authors adhere to this policy.

If the manuscript is published, Conflict of Interest information will be communicated in a statement in the published paper. Please note that your submission must be accompanied by a Conflict of Interest form.

Title Page
The title page should include the authors' full names and affiliations, a running title of 50 characters or less (in addition to the full paper title), and the telephone and fax numbers and e-mail address of the corresponding author, who will be designated in the online submission system to be the primary contact with the journal office. Institutional affiliations should correspond to where the work was done, not where the author is at present.

Manuscript Title
The full manuscript title should be succinct (approximately 120 characters and informative. The title should include sufficient detail for indexing but be general enough to be clear to the broad readership of the journal. Toward that end, abbreviations and acronyms, including those for gene and protein names, should be avoided in titles or the general nature of the abbreviated entity should be clear. The journal encourages active titles over merely descriptive ones whenever possible. The title must mention the subject organism (or general group in the case of comparative works). Common names are allowed for major model systems (maize, rice, yeast); scientific names should be used for all organisms that have no widely accepted common name.

Abstract
The abstract should stand on its own with no reference to the text. It should contain approximately 200 words and must summarize the questions being addressed, the approach taken, the major findings, and the significance of the results. It should not contain discursive matter. The abstract should be concise, complete, and clearly communicate the importance of the work for a broad audience.

Introduction
The Introduction should provide the necessary background information for the average reader; it should be both complete and concise. Previous
