It used to be a niche publication, but recently it has been showing good growth. It's a slightly losing investment anyway, but since I'm in a hurry, I'll invest in it.

After submission, it is suggested to revise the language and then resubmit. Two weeks later, the review comments will be received, and the revision time will also be two weeks. After re-review and further revision, acceptance will be granted, which takes a total of two months to be accepted. Payment is required for acceptance. Proof will be received one week later, and publication will take place two weeks after that.

Excuse me, have you received it? Currently, I have received two acceptances and one rejection, but I still don't know the status.

yinghao 2022-10-31

Why hasn't my article reached the "Review Finalized" status yet? It has been interactive for a long time.

yinghao 2022-10-29

Hello, I submitted an article on the forefront of plant science. Now, all three reviewers have completed their interactive comments. Reviewer 3 has finalized the article. Do I need to resubmit the manuscript in the interactive editing area, or should I wait for the next step of editorial review and finalization?

So, what do you think of this journal, OP?

麤麤鹿 2022-10-26

The research team's project is coming to an end by the end of the year, and an article is needed. In order to save time, I won't submit it to those traditional top-tier botanical journals in Zone 1. This article doesn't require much work, just some high-throughput analysis and validation. However, I have discovered some interesting results and created an amazing figure. Haha.

To avoid interfering with the National Day holiday, I will submit the article by September 30th. On October 16th, I received the first round of reviewer comments, which is the first time I have encountered such a situation. Haha. There were only two minor issues, which I easily addressed. On October 20th, I received the second round of reviewer comments, and they fully accepted the article. The editor requested that I submit the revised version by the 24th, but I had already submitted it on the 21st. Now, all that's left is to wait.

I have a paper that was also submitted to a well-known top journal. The external reviewers accepted one after another, but the editor ultimately rejected it. I resubmitted it here and it was accepted after half a month.

yinghao 2022-10-21

Two reviewers were initially assigned, one rejected while the other accepted after minor revisions. Then another reviewer was assigned, and the paper was accepted after minor revisions. What should be done in this situation?

云影 2022-10-21

It should be to edit his comment.

yinghao 2022-10-21

What should I do if the reviewer cancels the comment in the interactive area? What does it mean?

yinghao 2022-10-21

Three reviewers were sent, two agreed to accept, and one disagreed. In this situation, how will the decision be made?

19 Oct 2022 - Accepted for publication. Review of Review Editor 1 finalized.
18 Oct 2022 - Author re-submitted manuscript.
14 Oct 2022 - Interactive review forum activated automatically.
06 Oct 2022 - Review of Reviewer 2 is finalized.
30 Sep 2022 - Corresponding Author submitted manuscript.

From submission to acceptance in 19 days, yes, you read it correctly. And the reviewers were truly professional and diligent. I received their comments and made revisions immediately. The manuscript was accepted on the same day it was resubmitted. Hard work pays off, as this paper was initially rejected by a top European journal in the field of botany. It was only unfortunate that I had only one reviewer who was not friendly. However, as they say, a gem will always shine. The reviewers and editors recognized the value of my work and gave me a smooth process, completing everything in just 19 days. One of the main reasons I chose to submit to this journal is because its impact factor has been steadily rising, soon reaching over 8. As a showcase journal for biology, plant science, and Frontiers, it has been a top-tier journal in the Chinese Academy of Sciences for many years. Its promotion to the first quartile is within reach.

Don't worry, give the editor some time.

yyonhwe 2022-09-28

Posted on July 20th, reviewed on the 30th, received comments from one reviewer on August 13th, but still waiting for comments from other reviewers. Sent two emails to the managing editor but haven't received any response. Not sure what's going on, as this journal is known for its fast process. How could this happen...

太阳211 2022-09-27

First hire and then proofread, most of the proofs are received in about two weeks.

哈哈哈接收吧接受吧 2022-09-27

Hello, I would like to ask, how long does it take from proof to the offer letter?

言上 2022-09-27

How do you know who the reviewer is?

科研努力奋斗的小黄人 2022-09-22

This journal article is of high quality and I hope it can enter the first tier of the Chinese Academy of Sciences as soon as possible.

云影 2022-09-21

Is applying for an extension done by writing an email or directly responding in the system to the editor?

师者书生 2022-09-17

We are hosting a special issue on the detection of heavy metals and heavy metal stress in crops. We welcome everyone to submit their contributions.

太阳211 2022-09-01

Everything else is fine, just that I don't quite understand the matter of receiving in June and going online in September. Those who received later than us have already sent it out, and we haven't even received the proof at that time.

科研努力奋斗的小黄人 2022-08-31

Submitted on June 15th, accepted on August 30th, taking a total of 2 and a half months. The review process was normal, undergoing major and minor revisions, and further revisions based on the editor's comments. The journal's requirements are becoming increasingly strict, hoping that the journal will continue to improve, and ideally, be included in Zone 1 of the Chinese Academy of Sciences as soon as possible.

High-throughput plant phenotyping, submission in January, revision in February, edits in March, acceptance in April.

After a few months, upon revisiting, I found that the publication fee has increased from the previous $2950 to $3225... Our research group's budget is also tight, I really don't know if there will be an opportunity to submit to this journal in the future.

努力发sci 2022-08-23

Finally received! Although the journal's efficiency is average, the reviewers are truly professional and meticulous. They provided many crucial suggestions and raised questions that added to the length of the article. After more than a month of major revisions, conducting additional experiments, and almost rewriting the article, it was ultimately accepted. Hard work pays off.

努力发sci 2022-08-21

Damn it, the review has been stuck for 11 days. Customer service has also been contacted and reminded the editor twice, but I have no clue what the editor is doing.

littleshirly1 2022-08-21

Did your article get accepted in the end? I also had my revised version rejected by the reviewer.

790698098@qq.com 2022-08-19

The reviewer was very fast. The submission made in June was accepted in July, and then published online in early August.

太阳211 2022-08-18

Hello, may I ask if there is a long interval between your first and second proofreading? Those who are later than us have already been published, but we haven't yet.

forestry 2022-08-17

Agree with the viewpoint on the first floor. Just like if you only use Science for graduation, if you submit too many papers there, others may think you are not professional in your field and consider you as someone who only publishes in this kind of general journal. It is strongly recommended that the first floor read a book called "Pride and Prejudice", maybe you can find your kindred spirit.
