CALL FOR PAPERS Plant Physiology Focus Issue on Legume Biology Deadline for Submissions: July 1, 2009 To submit an article, please go to http://submit.plantphysiol.org. Plant Physiology is pleased to announce a Focus Issue on Legume Biology to be published in November 2009. The issue will be edited by Carroll Vance, Mark O Brian, and Kate VandenBosch. Submissions on all topics of legume biology are welcome, including genomics, model legumes, interactions with microorganisms, nutrient acquisition and metabolism, regulation, signaling, development, natural variation, and response to global climate change and other abiotic effects. Authors interested in contributing should indicate this in the cover letter when submitting papers online at http://submit.plantphysiol.org/. Please select Legumes (November 2009) from the Focus Issue list in the online submission system. Articles published within 2 years before and after the focus issue will be considered for inclusion in an online Focus Collection of articles relevant to the focus topic. Please contact Carroll Vance (vance004@tc.umn.edu), Mark O Brian (mrobrian@buffalo.edu), or Kate VandenBosch (vande102@umn.edu) for additional information.

The Arabidopsis Book Posts New Content! T he American Society of Plant Biologists has published The Arabidopsis Book (TAB) as a free online compendium since 2002. ASPB is providing funds for the production of TAB as a public service. Founded by Chris Somerville and Elliot Meyerowitz, TAB now has more than 60 chapters online and receives nearly 100,000 full-text downloads every year. The current editorial board is working hard to continue TAB s ongoing expansion: Rob Last (chair), Michigan State University Caren Chang, University of Maryland Ian Graham, University of York Dan Kliebenstein, University of California, Davis Ottoline Leyser, University of York Rob McClung, Dartmouth College Harvey Millar, University of Western Australia Cynthia Weinig, University of Minnesota The board is overseeing all new content development as well as updates to existing chapters to keep TAB the most comprehensive and current work on Arabidopsis.
