Request a sales quoteThe Journal of Experimental Horticulture is an international, multidisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing the field of horticulture. The journal’s primary aim is to publish high-quality scientific papers that enhance knowledge and deepen our understanding of horticultural crop biology, physiology and genetics. We seek research that contributes to the development of superior horticultural crops and provide valuable insights for the sustainable improvement of horticultural plant cultivation and food security.
We encourage researchers to submit manuscripts focused on various aspects of horticultural crops including but not limited to:
Molecular breeding for improved horticultural crop production
Plant and fruit physiology
Postharvest physiology and biology
Plant-pathogen interactions
Developmental and molecular responses to abiotic stresses
Resilience and adaptation to climate change
Genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, phenomics and the integration of OMICs technologies in horticultural crops
Horticulture genetic resources
Genome editing in horticultural crops
We welcome submissions based on both basic sciences, aimed at understanding fundamental processes in horticultural crops, and applied research that benefits various aspects of horticultural science, such as breeding, cultivation, crop quality and postharvest management.
Papers that report valuable preliminary data or single-year studies will be considered if they provide significant insights and are supported by comprehensive methodologies and robust results. Descriptive or confirmatory studies on biological processes previously described in other model species, are welcome, as long as they are driven by a clear hypothesis and conducted with appropriate methodologies.
Journal of Experimental Horticulture DOES NOT accept papers based on non-horticultural species, such as cereals, forestry, medicinal and industrial crops. Studies on plant-pathogen interactions that primarily focus on the pathogen, molecular biology studies or biotechnological applications without a clear orientation toward horticulture, and technological approaches unrelated to horticultural science (e.g., engineering applications or fruit processing) will be considered OUT of SCOPE.
We place a high value on molecular investigations of fruit during postharvest, however, papers focused solely on the application of postharvest technologies will be considered OUT of SCOPE.
The journal will also organize Special Issues on important and specific topics curated by Guest Editors.
