# Annual Review of Plant Biology (annual-review-of-plant-biology) ## Journal positioning Annual Review of Plant Biology, published by Annual Reviews, publishes **authoritative, comprehensive review articles** that synthesize the state of a plant-biology field for a broad scientific readership. It is an **invited-review venue**: articles are normally commissioned by the editorial committee, and the contribution is a balanced, forward-looking synthesis of a literature — not new primary data. The single largest mismatch is submitting unsolicited primary research, or a narrow mini-review that reads like a grant introduction rather than a definitive field synthesis. Authors with a compelling topic typically propose it to the editors rather than submit a finished manuscript unrequested. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current author guidance. Before proceeding, re-check the live Annual Reviews/AR Plant Biology guidance and the commissioning process. ## When to trigger - The author is considering Annual Review of Plant Biology for a synthesis of a plant-biology field and needs to confirm the invited-review expectation. - A sci

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill annual-review-of-plant-biology --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
