First review takes three months, with one reviewer suggesting minor revisions and another suggesting major revisions. The editor rejects the submission but invites a resubmission. After conducting additional experiments, the resubmission undergoes a second review which takes one and a half months. The same reviewers are involved, with one agreeing directly and the other raising some language issues. The editor gives the authors five days to make the necessary revisions. After five days, the revised version is accepted by the editor. 

Overall evaluation: The reviewers are very professional and responsible. The editor is relatively friendly. It is said that PS is also a well-established journal in the field of botany, and the overall quality of the article is good. Best wishes for everyone's article to be accepted soon!

Submitted a review article. Needed to self-recommend to the editor, and the process went smoothly, taking about fifteen days to be accepted. Then it took about one and a half months for external review. The first revision came back, and a total of three revisions were made. The journal took about two weeks to accept it after that.

How long has the "under review" status lasted?

Overall, Plant Science is an established journal, and the quality of the articles it accepts is much better than in previous years. This is largely due to the increase in the journal's impact factor. Furthermore, the journal's review process is very fast, with review comments typically provided within a month. We hope to increase the citation count and surpass the 5-point mark next year.

The quality of the manuscript review is really disappointing. I recently submitted an article that I had prepared for a solid year, thinking it was completely presentable. Unexpectedly, the first feedback received stated that there were ethical issues in the article, just like another paper I had published before, from the experiments to the data to the conclusions. This comment was so powerful that the editor immediately rejected the paper, while other reviewers' feedback has yet to be received. Seeing this comment and decision is simply absurd. There is indeed another parallel work that was published in another journal earlier, but the data, methods, objectives, and conclusions are completely different from those of the paper under review. The reviewer probably did not thoroughly read the content, hastily drawing conclusions that determine the fate of the article. The editor is also quite irresponsible. As an associate editor of a journal myself, I generally do not easily conclude on ethical issues, at least not based solely on one reviewer's opinion.

The time under review was updated once, and it has been a month with no news.

Did not propose experimental questions, there are numerous language problems, did not provide major or minor revisions and asked for modifications. Is there any hope?

What does it mean to make changes without major or minor repairs? Is there any hope?

Overall, the review and revision process was quite fast. The first review took approximately 20 days (major revisions, no experimental requirements), and the second review took around 10 days (minor revisions accepted and quickly returned).

The review speed was not fast, the reviewers were very serious, and the comments given had greatly improved the article. Plant Science is a time-honored journal in the field of plant science, with a stable impact factor. There are options for the publication fee, and you can choose not to pay.

The second article went much smoother than the first one. After the first round of revisions, all three reviewing experts provided minor edits, and the article was accepted two days after the revisions. Efficiency has improved significantly

The second article, which is much smoother than the first article. After the first review, all three reviewers gave minor revisions, 2 days after revision Receive directly. The efficiency becomes higher.

Overall, plant science is relatively friendly to Chinese academics. The editor-in-chief is very good, though there is not enough time for experiments. A request to extend the submission deadline was quickly replied to by the editor, with the extension being slightly longer than requested. In recent years, the development momentum of PCR has been better than the JIPB, with a slight decline

The editorial department is not very efficient in handling, but the review process is quite fast. The opinions raised by the reviewers are very insightful and greatly improve the article. We added four small experiments and rejected one, and the revised version was accepted directly

The editorial office did not process it in time, but the review speed was relatively fast, the comments raised by the review experts were of high level, which were helpful for improving the article. I supplemented four small experiments, and one of them was rejected. It was accepted directly after revision.

The reviewers are very serious and their comments are also very pertinent. I have learned a lot from my first article. I am lucky to have chosen this journal!

Many people ask whether this journal belongs to the second or third quartile. If you are in the field of plant science, this journal belongs to the second quartile; if you are in the field of biology and molecular biology, it belongs to the third quartile. Generally, papers published in this journal are related to plants, so it is a second quartile journal
