Grass Research provides a reliable source for the timely dissemination of original and novel scientific discoveries in mechanistic aspects of plant biology and interactions with environments and microorganisms for grass species in natural ecosystems (grassland) or cultivated systems as forage grass (including legumes), turfgrass, ornamental grass, bioenergy grass, or other plant species with relevant research information and methodology applicable for improving grass productivity and adaptation to biotic or abiotic stresses. The journal will serve as an international platform to promote academic exchange and knowledge sharing among all scientists interested in the fundamental biology of grass and other relevant plant species in natural grassland or cultivated grass community.

Research papers and review articles published by Grass Research represent significant advances in mechanistic understanding of genomic, molecular, cellular, biochemical, and physiological processes and pathways involved in plant growth and development, as well as interactions with the environment and cultural management practices. Grass Research also publishes editorials and perspectives for expressing opinions on a specific issue or novel insights about existing research on a particular topic.

Specific areas of research in grass species covered by the journal include, but are not limited to, the following:

●  Cellular and molecular biology

●  Developmental biology

●  Biochemistry and physiology

●  Breeding and genetics

●  Genomics, genome assembly, and evolution

●  Epigenetic regulation and modification

●  Biotechnology and genome editing

●  Biotic and abiotic interactions

●  Responses to soil physical and chemical stresses

●  Responses to cultural or management practices

●  Impacts on climate changes and environments

●  Plant-microbe interactions

●  Development and application of new methodologies and technologies (i.e., artificial intelligence, mobile remote sensing, and plant phenomics)
