Plant Genetics and Diversity is an international, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing research on plant genetics, breeding, and biodiversity. The journal provides a multidisciplinary platform for researchers, breeders, conservationists, and plant scientists to explore genetic variation, plant resources, and innovative breeding approaches that contribute to sustainable agriculture, biodiversity conservation, and global food security.

 

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Plant genomics and molecular breeding
  • Genetic diversity of crops, wild relatives, and landraces
  • Conservation, evaluation, and sustainable use of plant genetic resources
  • Marker-assisted selection, genome editing, and biotechnology applications in breeding
  • Trait improvement for yield, disease resistance, stress tolerance, and nutritional quality
  • Population genetics, phylogenetic studies, and evolutionary analysis of plants
  • Genebank development, germplasm preservation, and resource management
  • Integration of plant diversity into breeding programs for climate adaptation
  • Applied research linking plant genetic diversity to crop and ecosystem performance
  • Emerging technologies and methodologies in plant genetics and biodiversity research

    Digital Twin-Enabled Security Situation Awareness for Cloud-Edge Computing: A Dynamic Mapping and Predictive Analysis Approach

    Maria Garcia-Rodriguez
    25-36

    11 (Abstract) 7 (Download)

    Security situation awareness (SSA) is essential for proactive defense in cloud-edge computing, but traditional methods struggle with heterogeneous entity mapping, multi-source data fusion and emerging threat prediction. Digital Twin (DT) offers a new technical path to address these bottlenecks. This study proposes a DT-Enabled SSA framework (DT-SSA), which builds a high-fidelity virtual mirror of cloud-edge... more

    14 (Abstract) 5 (Download)

    Cloud-edge convergence, integrating cloud scalability and edge real-time processing, has become the foundational architecture for latency-sensitive applications like autonomous driving and smart healthcare, while optimizing performance and cutting bandwidth costs. However, its distributed and heterogeneous nature brings unprecedented cybersecurity challenges beyond traditional centralized defense mechanisms. This study systematically analyzes cloud-edge vulnerabilities across four layers: edge... more

    Federated Learning-Driven Privacy-Preserving and Security Defense for Cloud-Edge Computing: A Hierarchical Collaborative Framework

    Anna Kowalska
    49-60

    35 (Abstract) 8 (Download)

    Cloud-edge computing, integrating cloud computing’s robust computing capacity and edge computing’s low-latency response, underpins data-intensive applications like smart cities and industrial IoT. However, its distributed edge data carries severe privacy leakage risks during cloud transmission, and edge nodes’ open access makes systems vulnerable to malicious attacks. Federated Learning (FL), enabling collaborative model training without raw... more
