Submission checklist

You

Ethics in Publishing

For

information on Ethics in Publishing and Ethical guidelines for journal

publication see https://www.elsevier.com/publishingethics and

Declaration of competing interest

All

authors must disclose any financial and personal relationships with

other people or organizations that could inappropriately influence

(bias) their work. Examples of potential conflicts of interest include

employment, consultancies, stock ownership, honoraria, paid expert

testimony, patent applications/registrations, and grants or other

funding. Authors should complete the declaration of competing interest

statement using this template and upload to the submission system at the

Attach/Upload Files step. Note: Please do not convert the .docx

template to another file type. Author signatures are not required. If

there are no interests to declare, please choose the first option in the

template. More information

Submission Declaration

Submission

of an article implies that the work described has not been published

previously (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published

lecture or academic thesis or as an electronic preprint, see 'Multiple,

redundant or concurrent publication' section of our ethics policy for

more information), that it is not under consideration for publication

elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and tacitly

or explicitly by the responsible authorities where the work was carried

out, and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the

same form, in English or in any other language, including electronically

without the written consent of the copyright-holder. To verify

originality, your article may be checked by the originality detection

service CrossCheck.

Use of inclusive language

Inclusive

language acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is

sensitive to differences, and promotes equal opportunities. Content

should make no assumptions about the beliefs or commitments of any

reader; contain nothing which might imply that one individual is

superior to another on the grounds of age, gender, race, ethnicity,

culture, sexual orientation, disability or health condition; and use

inclusive language throughout. Authors should ensure that writing is

free from bias, stereotypes, slang, reference to dominant culture and/or

cultural assumptions. We advise to seek gender neutrality by using

plural nouns ("clinicians, patients/clients") as default/wherever

possible to avoid using "he, she," or "he/she." We recommend avoiding

the use of descriptors that refer to personal attributes such as age,

gender, race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, disability or

health condition unless they are relevant and valid. When coding

terminology is used, we recommend to avoid offensive or exclusionary

terms such as "master", "slave", "blacklist" and "whitelist". We suggest

using alternatives that are more appropriate and (self-) explanatory

such as "primary", "secondary", "blocklist" and "allowlist". These

guidelines are meant as a point of reference to help identify

appropriate language but are by no means exhaustive or definitive.

Author contributions

For

transparency, we require corresponding authors to provide co-author

contributions to the manuscript using the relevant CRediT roles. The

CRediT taxonomy includes 14 different roles describing each

contributor's specific contribution to the scholarly output. The roles

are: Conceptualization; Data curation; Formal analysis; Funding

acquisition; Investigation; Methodology; Project administration;

Resources; Software; Supervision; Validation; Visualization;

Roles/Writing - original draft; and Writing - review & editing. Note

that not all roles may apply to every manuscript, and authors may have

contributed through multiple roles. More details and an example.

Changes to Authorship

This policy concerns the addition, deletion, or rearrangement of author names in the authorship of accepted manuscripts:

Before

the accepted manuscript is published in an online issue: Requests to

add or remove an author, or to rearrange the author names, must be sent

to the Journal Manager from the corresponding author of the accepted

manuscript and must include: (a) the reason the name should be added or

removed, or the author names rearranged and (b) written confirmation

(e-mail, fax, letter) from all authors that they agree with the

addition, removal or rearrangement. In the case of addition or removal

of authors, this includes confirmation from the author being added or

removed. Requests that are not sent by the corresponding author will be

forwarded by the Journal Manager to the corresponding author, who must

follow the procedure as described above.

Note that:

   Journal Managers will inform the Journal Editors of any such requests and

   publication of the accepted manuscript in an online issue is suspended until authorship has been agreed.

After

the accepted manuscript is published in an online issue: Any requests

to add, delete, or rearrange author names in an article published in an

online issue will follow the same policies as noted above and result in a

corrigendum.

Copyright

Upon

acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to complete a 'Journal

Publishing Agreement'. Acceptance of the agreement will ensure the

widest possible dissemination of information. An e-mail will be sent to

the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript together

with a 'Journal Publishing Agreement' form or a link to the online

version of this agreement.

Permission

of the society is required for resale or distribution outside the

institution and for all other derivative works, including compilations

and translations (please consult bianji@mail.kib.ac.cn or

linnana@mail.kib.ac.cn). If excerpts from other copyrighted works are

included, the author(s) must obtain written permission from the

copyright owners and credit the source(s) in the article.

Author Rights

As

an author you (or your employer or institution) have certain rights to

reuse your work. For more information on author rights please see

https://www.elsevier.com/copyright

Data sharing and archiving

Authors

are required to ensure that data and materials integral to the papers

are available to readers in a form allowing verification and replication

of the results. When feasible, data should be included as a part of the

article or as supporting information; when not possible, Plant

Diversity requires authors to follow the instructions below.

1.

The data should be archived in the data storage community of Plant

Diversity in the Science Data Bank (Science DB):

https://scidb.cn/en/c/pd. The ScienceDB website is a platform for users

to store and obtain data for free. ScienceDB has been recommended by

Springer Nature, American Geophysical Union, Cell Press and Elsevier,

and is included in the Data Citation Index and Google Dataset Search.

2.

Scientific data from projects supported in whole, or in part, by

funding from Chinese governmental agencies must be deposited in the

ScienceDB before publication of the paper.

3.

For articles with archived data, we recommend adding a "data

availability statement" in the manuscript using the following format:

Data Availability Statement

The

data that support the findings of this study are openly available in

the Science Data Bank at https://www.doi.org/[DOI number] or

http://resolve.pid21.cn/[CSTR number].

Open Access

Every

peer-reviewed research article appearing in this journal will be

published open access. This means that the article is universally and

freely accessible via the internet in perpetuity, in an easily readable

format immediately after publication. Manuscripts submitted after

December 31, 2025 will require a one-time article processing charge

(APC) upon formal manuscript acceptance.

Manuscripts

submitted between January 1, 2026 and December 31, 2026 are qualified

for discounted APCs. Please refer to the table below for applicable

rates. Manuscripts without project funding can apply for an APC waiver. A

waiver request should only be raised during the initial submission

process. Waiver requests made during peer review or after acceptance

will not be considered. To apply for APC reduction, please email Dr. Lin

Nana at linnana@mail.kib.ac.cn
