How to decorate a Manuscript?
Manuscript should contain Title, Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods (Methodology), results and discussion, Acknowledgement (if any) and References. These subtitles, however, are not necessary in case of short communication.

1. Title: the first page should bear the title of the paper with author (s) name and corresponding address (s). It should be clear and short.
2. Abstract: The second page should begin with the title of the paper with ABSTRACT within the limit of 150 words. It should include only the results achieved by the authors.
3. Introduction: Introduction should contain background and justification of the research work. It should be concluded with a statement of objective (s).
4. Materials and Methods should contain a concise account of the research procedure.
5. Results and Discussion should preferably be combined and presented the principle findings of the study.
6. Tables, Graphs and Figures number should be minimal. Numerical data must be presented in either table or graph. Table should be typed on separate sheets.
7. References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in list of references following the text of the manuscript. The references should be arranged alphabetically giving surname of authors, initials, year of publication, title of paper, name of journal in full (or in abbreviated form conforming to the international list of periodical Title Word Abbreviations), volume and first and last pages of the references. Use the following system for arranging of references:
   1. For periodicals Ehlerigner, J. and 1. Forseth. 1980. Solar tracking by plants. Science 210: 1020-1098
   2. For books Jones, H. G. 1992. Plants and Microclimate: A Quantitative Approach to Environment, Second Edition. Cambridge University press, Cambridge. pp. 12-15 or p. 45
   3. For unpublished works Refer to unpublished works only in the text, in this manner (H. G. Zandstra, unpublished), (D. W. Norman, personal communication).
   4. In the text a reference should be quoted by the author’s name (without initial) and data (in parentheses).
   5. If reference is made to a publication written by more that two authors the name of the first author should be followed by “et al.” This implication, however, should not be used in the list of references i. e. all the authors’ name should be cited.
   6. References holds two or more names in the text should be arranged chronologically e. g. Paulsen et al., 1983; Agata et al., 1989.
   7. The list of references should be arranged alphabetically on author’s names. Publication by the same author in the same year should be listed as Kanemasu, 1982 a; kanemasu, 1982 b etc.).

How the Manuscript will be reviewed?
submitted manuscripts will be viewed initially by journal staff and processed through a customised software. If any components are found to be missing, the manuscript will be returned to the corresponding author with instructions on how to correct the problem.
The Editorial Board Member will determine the suitability of the paper for the journal. Editors-in-Chief are authorized to render an immediate “reject” decision on manuscripts without review should they deem them unsuitable or inappropriate.
If the submission is approved and an Editorial Board Member is assigned, then generally a manuscript is sent to two reviewers to assess its strengths and weaknesses. Reviewers make recommendations on the suitability of the manuscript for the journal based on several criteria, e.g., used reference, methodology/method of the paper, etc. for the journal.
Reviewers do not render final decisions; only the editors can make such decisions.

Authors can check the status of their manuscript by generating a ticket at the support centre or by sending an e-mail to info@cidsbd.org with manuscript id number. After the editor has read the reviews, a decision is issued to the author by email. The email will contain the comments from the reviewers and the editor’s recommendations.

How to submit a Manuscript?
A well decorated manuscript in acceptable format (*.doc, *.docx, *.rtf) can be submitted by filling the required data at the Manuscript Submission link. An Author also need to be submitted a deceleration letter (download a deceleration letter template) during manuscript submission.
