PARTS OF A RESEARCH ARTICLE

Kindly format your article before submission; some articles are not upto the mark and deserves rejection merely for the purpose of not with informed content eventhough the researches are good.

Title
    The title should briefly identify the subject and indicate the purpose of the document. The title should supply enough information for the reader to make a reliable decision on probable interest. Do not use all caps; instead use caps only at the first word of the title and/or at scientific names, abbreviations etc.,Center the authors' initials and last names directly below the title.

Abstract
    The abstract should include a hypothesis or rationale for the work, a brief description of the methods, a summary of the results, and a conclusion. The abstract should be less than 250 words. Do not include literature citations or references to tables, figures or equations.

Keywords

Body of the Article
    The introductory section of the text should include a brief statement of why the research was conducted. It should also define the problem and present objectives along with a plan of development of the subject matter. The introductory section also usually includes a brief survey of the relevant literature on the topic.

Materials and Methods
    Provide sufficient detail so that the work may be repeated. Do not give details of methods described in readily available sources. Instead, refer to the source and describe any modification. Figures that illustrate test apparatus and tables of treatment parameters or equipment specifications are appropriate here.

Results and Discussion
    This section describes the solution to the problem stated in the introductory section. Use figures and tables to visually supplement the presentation of your results. The text must refer explicitly to all visuals, and you must interpret the visual elements to emphasize the evidence on which your conclusions are based. Do not omit important negative results.

Manuscript Charges
    Journal of Research in Ecology is an International Research Journal. This Journal provides immediate access to all published full-text articles to interested readers from all around the world. The availability of the author’s paper makes the scientific community to understand and develop an impact in the concerned research field. It also increases the chance of more citations of the published work, which in turn can be translated into more recognition of research. This journal also accelerates research and knowledge building worldwide.

    Publishing an article in Journal of Research in Ecology requires payment of the manuscript processing charges, once the manuscript is accepted for publication. The payment is to be made by one of the authors, their university/organization, or funding entity. The manuscript processing charges are fixed so as to allow publishers to recover manuscript processing expenses and the cost of making the full-text available on the Internet to all interested researchers.  We charge USD 145 as article processing charges per research article.
