Peer Review Report
Files in this Data Supplement:
- Peer Review Report - To increase the transparency of the review process, The Plant Cell will publish Peer Review Reports for all articles by January 2017, which will include decision letters, reviewer comments, and author responses. Reviewer anonymity will be strictly maintained. The reports will show only the most substantive parts of letters and comments; minor comments for revision, miscellaneous correspondence, and confidential comments for the editors will not be published. The text of reviewer comments and author responses will be unedited except to correct typos and minor grammatical errors (where noticed and easily corrected), and to remove minor and confidential comments. This report is published as part of a pilot program, including a small set of articles, with the approval of all respective authors and reviewers, to introduce readers and authors to the concept and test the format.
