Aims & Scope

The Phytobiomes Journal publishes original research on organisms and communities interacting with plants.

The phytobiome includes the collection of organisms living in close association with plants as well as other components of the environment such as soil, water or the atmosphere on which plants depend.

Members of the phytobiome engage in intimate and often highly-coevolved interactions with the plant and with one another, with significant consequences for crop yields in agriculture, for plant health and productivity in forest and grassland systems, and for large-scale ecosystem processes, including nutrient cycling and soil carbon sequestration.

Phytobiomes Journal features the latest advances in systems biology, network analysis, biogeochemistry, molecular and genomic population and community analyses, sensor and imaging technologies, and bioinformatics to advance our understanding of phytobiomes as integrated, focal units of plant, crop and ecosystem productivity.

Translational research that applies knowledge of phytobiomes to specific plant health and productivity issues and production systems in a changing world are also featured.
