Aims and scope
Biologia plantarum, an international journal for experimental botany founded in 1959 by Professor Bohumil Nìmec publishes original scientific papers, brief communications, reviews and hypotheses in plant biology fields of plant physiology, plant development, plant biochemistry and biophysics, plant cell biology, large scale plant omics and systems biology, physiological anatomy, ecophysiology, genetics, molecular biology, phytopathology, plant evolution, structure-function relationship, functional traits in plants, and tree biology. The journal focuses on model and crop plants, as well as on under-investigated species.
All papers should be scientifically sound.

Auxins and environmental factors regulate root gravitropismReviews
Z. Tang, Y. Zhang, Y. Ma, D. Zhao, J. Dong, H. Zhang

Roots are important for plant anchoring, water and nutrient absorption, and other physiological processes. Gravity is a primary determinant of the spatial distribution of plant roots in the soil. Therefore, in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanisms and biochemical networks of root responses to gravity has both theoretical and practical significance in guiding the genetic improvement of plants. Gravitropism, the process through which plants sense the direction of gravity and respond by making the roots grow downward and the stem grow upward, has been widely studied in roots. The perception of gravity and the gravitational growth of roots, key...
Comparative analysis of bioinformatic tools to predict and quantify active circular RNAs during grape cluster developmentOriginal Papers

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are relatively new members of the RNA world and can contribute to crucial biological functions. CircRNAs have tissue-specific expression profiles depending on cell type and developmental stage. In Sistan region cultivated grapes are seedless but have small berries. The compact clusters are another notable characteristic of these grape cultivars, which negatively impacts their marketability. In this study, we aimed to identify the circRNAs that are active in cluster formation and investigated the effects of gibberellin treatment on their expression. Eight detection tools were used to predict the expressed circRNAs. Reliable...
