MycoIndia: Journal of Indian Fungi is committed to maintaining the highest standards of publication ethics. Upholding ethical principles ensures the integrity, transparency, and credibility of the scientific publishing process. These principles guide all stakeholders, including authors, reviewers, and editors, to promote responsible research and uphold the quality of scientific literature.
Scientific misconduct encompasses unethical practices that compromise research integrity. The following are examples of such misconduct:
MycoIndia follows the ethical guidelines set by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) (https://publicationethics.org/). The journal is committed to fairness, transparency, and accountability in addressing disputes or ethical concerns during the publication process.
Authors must clearly state their contributions to the research to ensure proper recognition and accountability. Any disputes related to authorship will be resolved following COPE guidelines.
MycoIndia strictly prohibits:
Authors are encouraged to share data and biological materials described in published papers to promote collaboration and reproducibility. However, compliance with national and international regulations on the exchange of biological materials is essential.
The MycoIndia Editorial Board actively monitors and prevents publication of research that may involve scientific misconduct. If an Editorial Board member is found supporting unethical practices, appropriate actions will be taken, including their removal from the board.
MycoIndia encourages readers and researchers to report suspected research misconduct in published papers. Complaints can be submitted to the Editorial Office, which will acknowledge receipt within three working days and initiate an investigation. The Editor-in-Chief will make the final decision following COPE’s prescribed procedures.
By implementing these ethical guidelines, MycoIndia: Journal of Indian Fungi ensures a fair, transparent, and responsible publishing environment, contributing to the credibility and advancement of fungal research in India and beyond.
