Author Guidelines

The effects of globalization have driven tremendous changes within the research. Today, change is so rapid that the researchers have to keep itself aware with the latest discoveries, findings and research. Scholars Research Library aims to explore the research data, inventions, findings in the field of Agronomy, Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Biotechnology, Cell biology, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Developmental Biology, Ecology, Entomology, Genetics and Genomics, Ethnobotany, Ethnopharmacology, Ethnoveterinary, Evolutionary Biology, Genetics, Horticulture, Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Morphology, Pest Management, Phylogeny, Phylogeography, Physiology, Phytochemistry, Plant Breeding, Plant Genetics, Plant Pathology, Plant Production Systems, Systems Biology, Taxonomy, Weed Science and all other related areas.

Scholars Research Library journals offering peer-reviewed, scientifically based articles and original research, this contains information that will assist you in understanding intricacies of sciences. Scholars Research Library journals provide you with sound and expert research and advice to help you offer expertise to broaden information on the technology or the application of science.

Article Processing Charges (APC) :

.

Average Article prorcessing time (APT) is 55 days

Note: APC includes peer-reviewing, editing, publishing, archiving, and other costs associated with the publication of the articles.

If the author wants to make their article on subscription mode they can opt for that by stating in the cover letter during the submission process, which includes (Pre- quality, review, Graphics, and HTML). If the author wants to withdraw the article after 78 Hours of receiving it, the author needs to pay the 50% of the article processing fees. Since, the review process requires the input of Editors, Reviewers, Associate Managing Editors, Editorial Assistants, Content Writers, Editorial Managing Systems & other online tracking systems to ensure that the published article is of good quality and is in its best possible form.


Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):

Journal of Natural Product and Plant Resources is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication. The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.

Reprints

Final manuscripts will be sent as an E-mail attachment to the corresponding author as a PDF file. We are also offering reprints of released Issues and requested articles of Issue released as USD 5 per copy. Minimum order request should be 30 copies.

It is essential for us that authors should prepare their manuscripts according to the instructions and specifications listed below. The length and effectiveness of the peer review process will largely depend upon the care used by authors in preparing their manuscripts. Therefore, contributors are strongly encouraged to read these instructions carefully before preparing a manuscript for submission, and to check the manuscr ipt for conformance before submitting it for publication. Manuscripts preferred for publication in Central European Journal of Experimental Biology are those which:

1. Contain original work

2. Are focused on the core aims and scope of the journal

3. Are delivered in electronic format only

Please read the following instructions carefully and convert your research in manuscript as:

Page format : Manuscripts should be prepared as word processing documents on A4, or Letter size paper, leaving a liberal margin (2 cm) on all four sides.
