About this Research Topic
The Research Topic "Methods and Protocols in Floriculture and Landscapes" aims to highlight the latest experimental techniques and methods used to investigate research questions in Floriculture and Landscapes such as:
• Non-destructive methods for the evaluation of quality and stress conditions of floriculture and ornamental plants.
• Suggestions of procedures and revised protocols for the evaluation of pigments and the quality of plants that are optimized for floriculture and ornamental crops.
• Selection and screening methods for the identification of plants tolerant to biotic and abiotic stresses.
• Green areas planning to mitigate climate change issues and address air pollution.
• Plant health in the urban environment.
• Nursery techniques to increase transplanting success in the urban environment.
This Research Topic includes technologies and up-to-date methods which help advance science. Novelty may vary, but the utility of a method or protocol for research and teaching must be evident. In addition, scientists and teachers can share their experience in the delivery of experiments they use in a classroom for practicum.
This Research Topic welcomes the following article types:
• Methods describing either new or existing methods that are significantly improved or adapted for specific purposes. These manuscripts may include primary (original) data.
• Perspectives on methods and protocols relevant for horticulture research.
• Reviews and Mini-reviews of topical methods and protocols highlighting the important future directions of the field.
• Opinions on methodologies or applications including the advantages and limitations of each.
This Research Topic is part of the Methods and Protocols in Horticulture series. Other titles in the series are:
Methods and Protocols in Horticulture Breeding and Genetics 2022
Methods and Protocols in Viticulture, Pomology, and Soft Fruits 2022
The contributions to this collection will undergo peer review. Submissions will be handled by the team of Topic Editors.
