Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The intricate regulatory mechanisms of plant hormones and nutrients are fundamental to understanding plant growth and development. This topic has a rich history, dating back to early studies on plant physiology, and has seen significant advancements with modern molecular biology and genetic techniques. The aim of this Special Issue is to consolidate cutting-edge research that explores how plant hormones and nutrients interact at molecular, cellular, and physiological levels to influence plant development. We seek to highlight innovative studies that unravel the complex signaling networks and regulatory pathways involved. This Special Issue invites original research articles, reviews, and short communications that delve into the latest discoveries and technological advancements in this field. We particularly welcome papers that provide new insights into hormone–nutrient interactions, their regulatory networks, and their implications for plant resilience and productivity in changing environments.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Agronomy is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
