Special Issue on Flower  

This special issue on “Flower” will be focusing on the latest development in plant sciences and technology. A Flower is the reproductive structure of angiosperm. The biological function of a flower is to combine male sperm with female egg cells. This process begins with pollination, followed by fertilization, thus producing seeds to be disseminated. Furthermore, flowers have been used to beautify environment, as a source of food and so on.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring flower. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Flowering and flower development 
• Morphology
• Floral function
• Pollination
• Fertilization and dispersal 
• Evolution
• Usage of flowers

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.
