Submit nowMultifaceted Roles of Nitric Oxide in Plants
In this special issue, a collection of reviews and research papers summarize recent advances in our knowledge of plant NO production and degradation pathways, examine NO signaling mechanisms, and highlight its crosstalk with reactive oxygen species, hydrogen sulfide, and hormone-signaling processes for regulation of plant growth and responses to external stimuli.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
This virtual issue of Journal of Experimental Botany focuses on research that tackles the consequences of plant-microbe interactions, for both plant-mutualist and plant-pathogen scenarios. Moving from the study of key molecules and mechanisms underlying the balance, to the study of niche dynamics, it looks at the insights that could enable engineering of more robust crops in the future.
Special Issues archive
Special issues and focus collections include selected reviews which together provide a comprehensive overview of each research topic. Original research may also be featured and, in our eXtra Botany section, editorials provide an incisive update on the state of the field, wider implications and new directions.
Darwin Reviews
Darwin Reviews are the Journal of Experimental Botany’s most prestigious review series and topics are carefully chosen in the most progressive fields of research. Darwin Review authors are selected for their expertise and long-standing reputation.
