What do journal editors look for in a submission? Why is the cover letter so important? How does one respond to a negative review? Using The Plant Cell as an example, I will provide an overview of the editorial decision process and describe what happens after your paper is submitted. Guidelines for how to respond to peer review as well as how to be an effective peer reviewer will also be discussed, as will models of pre-publication peer review (e.g., BiorXiv) and post-publication peer review.
