Over the past decades, in vitro plant growth has been essential for different fields of plant science, as the large scale propagation of plantlets for fruit and ornamental plants, the production of disease-free plantlets, as tool for genetic breeding programs in horticulture, research about plant physiology under controlled environmental conditions, as well as, the use of in vitro techniques for conservation of endangered plant species. Due this importance and the necessity to develop research and scientific papers with high quality in this field, the aim of the present paper is to point out some fundamental items that support authors, reviewers and editors to the planning and preparation of papers in plant tissue culture, providing papers that will be published and recognized. Publication of high quality papers is important, whose results contributing to increase the scientific and technological advances in this field, with high reproducibility of data, and finally, with the possibility to be used in another research or as technological advance.
