General Instructions for submitting Review Articles to the Editor
|
|
|
INSTRUCTIONS: The
scientific articles must be written in English with an appropriate caption
followed by author/co-author’s name(s), address; Introduction; Running Text
Matter: subdivided into different sections (as 2.0, 2.1, 2.1.1, 3.0 and so on);
Referring names of workers with years in Running Text (e.g., Hemantaranjan and
Garg, 1988 or Hemantaranjan et al., 1999 if more than two authors, to be
given in the running text); Future Scope and Conclusions; and References (e.g.,
Hemantaranjan, A., O.K. Garg and C.Ramesh. 1998. Iron nutrition and interactions
in pulse crops. J.Plant Nutr., 27: 99-108). Besides these, Figures,
Graphs or Photo Plates of extremely high quality should be submitted in original
with a copy. Since the circulation of
these treatises is very wide, anyhow the international standard has to be
maintained. A sample format (coming in Volume 4) is being given for
accordingly doing the needful. I hope this will serve the purpose.
However, I am here to solve any query in this regard. SAMPLE

INTRODUCTION 1.1.
Drought and its importance for plant
life. Scope of the present
review Due
to the importance of drought as a limiting factor, and of photosynthesis as a
key process for plant life, many studies have been conducted to assess drought
effects on photosynthesis. Excellent reviews have been written about this
subject, either as specific reviews (Boyer, 1976; Lawlor, 1983; Schulze, 1986a;
Kaiser, 1987; Sharkey, 1990; Chaves, 1991; Cornic et al., 1992; Lawlor
and Uprety, 1993; Cornic, 1994; Ort et al., 1994; Lawlor, 1995; Cornic
and Massacci, 1996) and as a part of more extensive reviews on the effects of
drought on plant function (Hsiao, 1973; Bradford and Hsiao, 1982; Hanson and
Hitz, 1982; Schulze, 1986b; Berkowitz, 1998; Puigdefébregas and Pugnaire,
1999). 2. THE EFFECTS OF DROUGHT ON
PHOTOSYNTHESIS: STOMATAL AND NON-STOMATAL COMPONENTS. 2.1.
Background: methods for determination
of stomatal and non-stomatal components
of photosynthetic limitations 2.1.1.
Gas-exchange analyses Gas-exchange
analysis has been one of the most used tools for the evaluation of drought
effects on photosynthesis, especially since the description of a proper model
relating gas exchange to leaf biochemistry (Farquhar et al., 1980; von
Caemmerer and Farquhar, 1981; Farquhar and Sharkey, 1982), accompanied by the
development of portable infra-red gas-exchange analysers (IRGAs). Proper reviews
about the technique and model of gas-exchange analysis are available (Farquhar
and Sharkey, 1982; Lambers et al., 1998). 3 4 MODERN APPROACHES/ FUTURE SCOPE 5 CONCLUSIONS REFERENCES
