The research results reported should be applicable to an area of ecological or economic significance and of potential interest to a significant number of scientists and must make a significant contribution to the advancement of knowledge or towards a better understanding of existing concepts of biological sciences. The typical sequence for a paper is Title, Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results and Discussion and References.
Title:
Title must be concise, self-explanatory and limited within 20 words typed in ‘UPPERCASE’
and should be followed by author’s name(s) and E-mail of the corresponding
author. For example; F. Ahmed* and H. M. M. T. Hossain. *Corresponding
