Plant Ecology & Diversity

Journal Title：Plant Ecology & Diversity

Plant Ecology and Diversity is an international journal for communicating results and novel ideas in plant science, in print and on-line, six times a year. All areas of plant biology relating to ecology, evolution and diversity are of interest, including those which explicitly deal with today's highly topical themes, such as biodiversity, conservation and global change. We consider submissions that address fundamental questions which are pertinent to contemporary plant science. Articles concerning extreme environments world-wide are particularly welcome.

Plant Ecology and Diversity considers for publication original research articles, short communications, reviews, and scientific correspondence that explore thought-provoking ideas.

To aid redressing ‘publication bias’ the journal is unique in reporting, in the form of short communications, ‘negative results’ and ‘repeat experiments’ that test ecological theories experimentally, in theoretically flawless and methodologically sound papers. Research reviews and method papers, are also encouraged.

Plant Ecology & Diversity publishes high-quality and topical research that demonstrates solid scholarship. As such, the journal does not publish purely descriptive papers. Submissions are required to focus on research topics that are broad in their scope and thus provide new insights and contribute to theory. The original research should address clear hypotheses that test theory or questions and offer new insights on topics of interest to an international readership.

《植物生态学与多样性》是一本国际期刊，每年出版六期，以印刷版和在线版的形式传播植物科学领域的成果和新想法。植物生物学中与生态学、进化和多样性有关的所有领域都值得关注，包括那些明确涉及当今高度热门主题的领域，例如生物多样性、保护和全球变化。我们考虑提交解决与当代植物科学相关的基本问题的文章。特别欢迎有关全球极端环境的文章。

《植物生态学与多样性》考虑发表原创研究文章、简短通讯、评论和科学通信，以探索发人深省的想法。

为了帮助纠正“出版偏见”，该期刊以简短通讯的形式独特地报道“负面结果”和“重复实验”，这些实验通过实验测试生态理论，论文在理论上完美无缺、方法论合理。我们也鼓励发表研究评论和方法论文。

《植物生态与多样性》发表高质量、主题鲜明的研究，展现扎实的学术造诣。因此，该期刊不发表纯粹的描述性论文。投稿必须侧重于范围广泛的研究主题，从而提供新的见解并为理论做出贡献。原始研究应提出明确的假设，以测试理论或问题，并为国际读者感兴趣的主题提供新的见解。

Plant Ecology & Diversity创刊于2008年，由Routledge出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖PLANT SCIENCES全领域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所属细分领域中专业影响力一般，过审相对较易，如果您文章质量佳，选择此期刊，发表机率较高。平均审稿速度 较慢,6-12周 ，影响因子指数1.7，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
