    Abstract Academic publishing has been increasing greatly with the spread of open access journals and the shift to online publishing. However, authors must be aware of predatory journals and publishers while submitting their academic works for publication. Publishing in predatory journals is just a waste of efforts, money, and time as it does not add any scientific merits to the authors. The practice of predatory publishing can also damage the reputation of institutions and funding agencies. Therefore, there is an urgent need for awareness among researchers regarding predatory publishing. Local, national and international regulatory bodies should take stern actions against predatory publications while granting research funds and evaluating the researchers’ performance for job promotion and academic degrees.

    Abstract Predatory publishing is now rapidly growing and becoming a global challenge to scientific communities. Predatory publications pose a danger that could undermine the quality, integrity, and reliability of published scientific research works. They harm the career of those authors who published on them. The researchers should be aware of the quality of journals while publishing their research results. In this review, we briefly summarize the ways to spot out predatory publications, their harmful effects, and strategies to stop them. Authors should know the lists of predatory journals/publishers which are available on Beall’s list on the internet. Predatory journals take advantage of authors by asking them to publish for a fee without providing peer-review or editing services. The young and inexperienced authors are easy victims of predatory publications. The predatory publications are worthless, just a waste of time, resources, money, and efforts. The objective of this review paper was to create awareness about predatory journals among researchers and scholars.

    Abstract Wild Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are one of the most endangered wildlife species in Nepal. Currently, there are approximately 200 to 250 wild elephants counted in Nepal. Of them, 15-20 are in Jhapa district, 17 are in KoshiTappu Wildlife Reserve, eight in Sindhuli, and 45-50 in Parsa National Park andChitwan National Park. More than 100 elephants are in Bardiya National Parks and adjoining municipalities, and 25-30 are in Suklaphanta National Park and adjoining municipalities.Elephant conservation is challenged by habitat fragmentation, obstruction of migratory routes and human-elephant conflict. The governments of Nepal, law enforcement, NGOs, and local communities have made various initiatives to conserve elephants. In the paper, we have outlined the current status of the elephant population, and its conservative efforts. This study may be a useful tool for the scientific communities and ecologists to protect elephants from extinction.

    Abstract The determination of diversity among inbred lines is important for heterosis breeding. Sixty maize inbred lines were evaluated for their eight agro morphological traits during winter season of 2011 to analyze their genetic diversity. Clustering was done by average linkage method. The inbred lines were grouped into six clusters. Inbred lines grouped into Clusters II had taller plants with maximum number of leaves. The cluster III was characterized with shorter plants with minimum number of leaves. The inbred lines categorized into cluster V had early flowering whereas the group into cluster VI had late flowering time. The inbred lines grouped into the cluster III were characterized by higher value of anthesis silking interval (ASI) and those of cluster VI had lower value of ASI. These results showed that the inbred lines having widely divergent clusters can be utilized in hybrid breeding programme.

    Abstract Nitrogen and carbon sources are important for the growth and yield of chili. A combination of nitrogen and charcoal shows the potential to increase the availability of nutrients and stimulate plant performance. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of different levels of nitrogen and charcoal on the growth and yield of chili. A pot experiment was carried out at Lamjung Campus, Lamjung, Nepal from 2019 to 2020. The experiment was carried out using two-factor Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five replications. Twelve treatments consisted of three levels of nitrogen (0, 50 and 100 kg N ha−1) and four levels of charcoal (0, 2.5, 5 and 7.5% by soil weight) were used in the experiment. Nitrogen and charcoal showed a significant effect on different growth and yield parameters. Nitrogen application at the rate of 100 kg N ha−1 showed significantly the maximum number of primary branches (8.25), plant height (52.62 cm), leaf area (54.33 cm2), number of fruits per plant (42.95), fruit length (6.97 cm), yield per pot (97.14 g) and root length (29.87 cm). The application of 2.5% charcoal by soil weight showed a significant effect on plant height (53.60 cm), fruit length (7.12 cm) and yield per pot (77.55 g), while the application of 5% charcoal by soil weight produced the maximum number of fruits per plant (31.93). The combined level of nitrogen @ 100 kg N ha−1 and charcoal @ 2.5% by soil weight produced the yield per plot (127.1 g). This study suggests that chili production can be maximized by applying such a combined level of nitrogen and charcoal in the Lamjung.

    Abstract Root rot in brinjal is one of the most important problems. In the present research, five different fungicides; Mancozeb, Copper oxychloride, Hexaconazole, Metalaxyl+Mancozeb, and Carbendazim, at 100 ppm were evaluated for their efficacy against the causative agent of this disease, Fusarium solani, In-vitro. The experiment was carried out in Completely Randomized Design with seven replications. Our result shows the difference in the efficacy of all tested fungicide against this pathogen. The application of Carbendazim at 100 ppm gave the highest inhibition of mycelium growth (100%) followed by Mancozeb (85.08%) and Metalaxyl+Mancozeb (64.3%) (at the same dose) on the 7th day of incubation suggesting Carbendazim (100 ppm) as a better one to use for the management of F. solani.
