APPS Special Issue Call for Papers
From Theory to Practice: New Innovations and Their Application in Conservation Biology
Proposal Submission Deadline: April 4, 2023
We are pleased to announce a call for papers for a special issue of Applications in Plant Sciences, “From Theory to Practice: New Innovations and Their Application in Conservation Biology.” This special issue will feature new techniques and approaches across multiple disciplines (from physiology to evolution) and scales of inquiry (from individual plants to global perspectives), with a central focus on the development and dissemination of new methods and perspectives in conservation biology. We welcome new techniques, as well as reviews and thorough comparisons of existing techniques to point the community to best practices.

AJB SPECIAL ISSUE CALL FOR PAPERS
The role of plant-microbe interactions in plant community dynamics of tropical and subtropical ecosystems
Proposal Submission Deadline: June 1, 2023
We are pleased to announce a call for papers for a special issue of the American Journal of Botany, “The role of plant-microbe interactions in plant community dynamics of tropical and subtropical ecosystems.” This special issue aims to fill in some of the gaps that limit our ability to draw general inferences about the implications of these interactions, especially to understand how microbial effects on plant community dynamics may vary with context and, by extension, respond to global environmental change. A goal is to spotlight research on plant-soil microbe interactions from tropical and subtropical ecosystems. Studies led by early-career researchers and researchers and institutions from the global south are especially encouraged.
