An International Journal of Molecular Biology, Genomics, Proteomics, Metabolomics, and Bioinformatics DESCRIPTION The scope of the journal of Plant Molecular Biology Reporter has expanded to keep pace with new developments in molecular biology and the broad area of genomics. The journal now solicits papers covering myriad breakthrough technologies and discoveries in molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and other ‘omics’, as well as bioinformatics. As an international journal of plant molecular biology and the collective ‘omics’, we invite contributing authors to submit original full-length articles as well as short research reports that will have a fundamental impact on the knowledge base and technical prowess in these various areas. The journal will publish articles covering novel discoveries, mini-reviews, critical reports, and original methods (including bioinformatic tools). Regarding ‘methods’, the journal will no longer publish articles covering slight modifications/improvements of well-established protocols that are adaptable to a different plant species. It is important to note that only original and novel methods will be considered for publication. As this is an international journal, we welcome and encourage submission of articles from the international community of scientists.

Flowering is an indispensable biological process for the complete life cycle of angiosperms, crucial to the regeneration of plants and the continuation of species. In this work, a proteomic approach was applied to investigate differences in protein expression in two alfalfa cultivars with different flowering periods. Shoot tips (containing bud) were collected simultaneously at the bud stage from early...

Apiculus color of grain is an important trait which is used as a morphological marker in rice (Oryza sativa. L). In the present study, the purple apiculus mutant named as Ospa was developed from an indica cultivar using ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis. The Ospa mutant showed increased grain size, thousand-grain weight, and anthocyanin accumulation compared with the wild-type (WT). Histological...

The MAF (MADS AFFECTING FLOWERING)/FLC (FLOWERING LOCUS C) subfamily is one of the key families that control flowering. This family has been well studied and characterized in Arabidopsis thaliana and other model plants. However, information regarding the evolution and functions of MAF/FLC genes in Brassica rapa (B. rapa) is limited. To further study the evolutionary history of MAF/FLC family during...
