Environment section
Global environmental change is one of the key focus areas of the environment
section of New Phytologist, embracing modelling and ecosystem-level
experiments through to cellular responses. Environmental stress and
ecophysiology are also covered in depth, with the emphasis on the most
novel approaches. There is synergy with the other sections here, most
prominently in heavy metal tolerance and eco-devo (Function/Evolution)
and plant–soil processes (Interaction).
Indeed, breadth of coverage, with no subject exclusions, is central
to our philosophy.
The strength of the Environment section of the journal is exemplified
by our range of Special Issues
and Features [PDF], and in the Tansley reviews, which are free
to download.
