The Plant Cell
American Society of Plant Biologists
Purpose and Scope:
Founded in 1989, The Plant Cell publishes novel research of special significance in plant biology, especially in the areas of cellular biology, molecular biology, genetics, development, and evolution. Articles provide new insight that is of broad interest to plant biologists, not only specialists. In addition, the journal publishes review articles written for the broad readership of the
journal as well as occasional issues. Within three years of its initial publication,
The Plant Cell ranked first in impact factor among journals publishing primary research in the plant sciences, a standard of excellence that it has maintained ever since.
Intended Readership:
Plant cellular, molecular, genetic, developmental, and evolutionary
biologists worldwide.

Published by:
The Plant Cell is published by the American Society of Plant Biologists.
The American Society of Plant Biologists was founded in 1924 to promote the growth and development of plant physiology, to encourage and publish research in plant physiology, and to promote the interests and growth of plant scientists in general.
Over the decades the Society has evolved and expanded to provide a forum for molecular and cellular biology as well as to serve the basic interests of plant science.
Membership spans six continents, and members work in such diverse areas as academia, government laboratories, and industrial and commercial environments. The Society also has a large student membership. ASPB plays a key role in uniting the international plant science disciplines.
