About the Journal

Plant Adaptation Frontiers (PLAF) is a peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing cutting-edge research at the nexus of plant evolutionary biology, ecological adaptation, and climate resilience. As a premier scientific forum, PAF bridges fundamental plant science with applied solutions for environmental challenges, fostering dialogue among ecologists, geneticists, conservationists, and agricultural scientists.

Scope:
PLAF publishes high-impact research across all dimensions of plant adaptation, including but not limited to:
