Plant Ecology and Evolution

Plant Ecology and Evolution Diamond open access journal publishing about ecology and evolution of all plant groups Submissions concerning (sub)tropical Africa are particularly welcome.

Plant Ecology and Evolution is an scientific journal devoted to ecology, phylogenetics, and systematics of all "plant" groups in the traditional sense (including algae, fungi, and myxomycetes), also covering related fields such as comparative and developmental morphology, conservation biology, evo­lution, phytogeography, reproductive biology, population genetics, and vegetation studies. The journal is supported by Meise Botanic Garden and the Royal Botanical Society of Belgium.
