英文简介

Plant Methods is an open access, peer-reviewed, online journal for the plant research community that encompasses all aspects of technological innovation in the plant sciences.There is no doubt that we have entered an exciting new era in plant biology. The completion of the Arabidopsis genome sequence, and the rapid progress being made in other plant genomics projects are providing unparalleled opportunities for progress in all areas of plant science. Nevertheless, enormous challenges lie ahead if we are to understand the function of every gene in the genome, and how the individual parts work together to make the whole organism. Achieving these goals will require an unprecedented collaborative effort, combining high-throughput, system-wide technologies with more focused approaches that integrate traditional disciplines such as cell biology, biochemistry and molecular genetics.Technological innovation is probably the most important catalyst for progress in any scientific discipline. Plant Methods’ goal is to stimulate the development and adoption of new and improved techniques and research tools and, where appropriate, to promote consistency of methodologies for better integration of data from different laboratories.

中文简介

《植物方法》是一本面向植物研究社区的开放获取、同行评议的在线期刊，涵盖了植物科学技术创新的所有方面。毫无疑问，我们已经进入了一个令人兴奋的植物生物学的新时代。拟南芥基因组序列的完成，以及其他植物基因组项目的迅速进展，为植物科学的所有领域提供了前所未有的进展机会。然而，如果我们想要了解基因组中每个基因的功能，以及各个部分如何协同工作来构成整个有机体，就面临着巨大的挑战。实现这些目标将需要前所未有的合作努力，将高通量、全系统的技术与更集中的方法结合起来，将细胞生物学、生物化学和分子遗传学等传统学科结合起来。技术创新可能是任何科学学科进步的最重要催化剂。植物方法的目标是促进发展和采用新的和改进的技术和研究工具，并酌情促进方法的一致性，以便更好地综合来自不同实验室的数据。
