Advices to Contributors of Research Notes

Short articles reporting new finding in rice genetics are invited as research notes. Each note should be in the form of an abstract, typewritten double- spaced throughout on one side of A4 paper. In principle, a note should be within one printed page, or about two typewritten pages. References should be given when citation is made in the text. Particular strains used as experimental material should be briefly described. In addition, a few tables and figures will be accepted when considered necessary. Tables should be concise with values given in as few digits as possible. Recent papers on rice genetics published by the members in languages other than English may be briefly rewritten as research notes. In writing the manuscript, plese carefully follow the style we use, by referring to previous issues of RGN. Manuscripts may be sent to the editor at any time of the year.
