Plant Physiology's 25,000th Article Classics Collection

In the fall of 2010, Plant Physiology will publish its 25,000^th research article.  We are commemorating this event with a special online-only “Classics Collection” highlighting our most influential papers. Articles appearing in the Classics Collection will be paired with a commentary on the article's role in shaping plant research. What was discovered? Who were the actors? How and why was the paper influential?

While we are reflecting on our past, we are also looking foward to the future by making the October issue a special 25,000^th Article Celebration Issue. It will include invited Update articles focusing on the current work and emerging ideas in plant physiology research.

Both special publications will be edited by Don Ort (Editor in Chief), Rick Amasino, and Bonnie Bartel.
