GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF MANUSCRIPT<br />

1. Title <strong>of</strong> the article should be short, specific, phrased to identify the content and indicate the nature <strong>of</strong><br />

study.<br />

2. Names should be in capitals prefixed with initials and separated by commas. For more than two authors<br />

the names should be followed by ‘and’ in small letters before the end <strong>of</strong> last name. Full address <strong>of</strong> the<br />

place <strong>of</strong> research in small letters should be typed below the names. Present address and E-mail ID <strong>of</strong><br />

the author may be given as foot note.<br />

3. <strong>The</strong> full length paper should have the titles ABSTRACT, MATERIALS AND METHODS, RESULTS<br />

AND DISCUSSION, REFERENCES-all typed in capitals and bold font - 12. <strong>The</strong> research note will<br />

have only one title REFERENCES.<br />

4. ABSTRACT: <strong>The</strong> content should include the year, purpose, methodology and salient findings <strong>of</strong> the<br />

experiment in brief not exceeding 200 words. It should be so framed that the reader need not refer to<br />

the article except for details.<br />

5. INTRODUCTION : Should be without title and indicate the reasons which prompted the research,<br />

objectives and the likely implication. <strong>The</strong> review <strong>of</strong> recent literature should be pertinent to the problem.<br />

<strong>The</strong> content must be brief and precise.<br />

6. MATERIALS AND METHODS : Should include very clearly the experimental techniques and the<br />

statistical methods adopted. Citation <strong>of</strong> standard work is sufficient for the well known methods.<br />

7. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION : Great care should be taken to highlight the important findings with<br />

support <strong>of</strong> the data well distinguished by statistical measures like CD, r, Z test etc. Too descriptive<br />

explanation for the whole data is not desirable. <strong>The</strong> treatments should be briefly expressed instead <strong>of</strong><br />

abbreviations like T 1<br />

, T 2<br />

etc. <strong>The</strong> discussion should be crisp and relate to the limitations or advantages<br />

<strong>of</strong> the findings in comparison with the work <strong>of</strong> others.<br />

8. REFERENCES : Literature cited should be latest. References dating back to more than 10 years are<br />

not desirable. Names <strong>of</strong> authors, their spelling and year <strong>of</strong> publication should coincide both in<br />

the text and references. <strong>The</strong> following examples should be followed while listing the references from<br />

different sources.<br />
