The editorial board of Applications in Plant Sciences (APPS), the Bota nical Society of America's open
access, online journal, invites submissions of the following article types:

• Protocol Notes, describing new methods and technological advancements for the visualization
or quantification of biological information

• Genomic Resources Notes, characterizing the development and demonstrating the usefulness
of newly developed genomic resources, including transcriptomes

• Software Notes, detailing new software applications with exa mples of how they are used and
how results are interpreted

• Application Articles, illustrating the application of a new protocol, method, or software
applicat ion within the context of a larger study

• Review Articles, evaluating available techniques, methods, o r protocols within any area of the
plant sciences

• Primer Notes, reporting novel genetic markers within a taxon or taxa with evidence of wide
applicability

Launched in January 2013, APPS is ind exed in Pu bMed and Web of Science, and received its first
