Environmental and Experimental Botany

Aims & Scope

Environmental and Experimental Botany (EEB) publishes research papers on the physical, chemical, biological, molecular mechanisms and processes involved in the responses of plants to their environment.

In addition to research papers, the journal includes review articles.

Submission is in agreement with the Editors-in-Chief.

The Journal also publishes special issues which are built by invited guest editors and are related to the main themes of EEB.

The areas covered by the Journal include: (1) Responses of plants to heavy metals and pollutants (2) Plant/water interactions (salinity, drought, flooding) (3) Responses of plants to radiations ranging from UV-B to infrared (4) Plant/atmosphere relations (ozone, CO2 , temperature) (5) Global change impacts on plant ecophysiology (6) Biotic interactions involving environmental factors.
