Data Retrieval Policy

The International Journal of Plant and Animal Sciences upholds a strict data retrieval policy designed to promote transparency, reproducibility, and ethical research practices. Authors are required to provide full and accurate descriptions of the data and materials used in their studies. Whenever possible, datasets should be made publicly available in recognized and reputable data repositories relevant to the field, with proper links or access details provided in the manuscript. In cases where data cannot be shared due to ethical, legal, or privacy restrictions, authors must include a clear explanation and ensure that data will be available upon reasonable request. The journal encourages authors to make supplementary materials, such as raw data, analysis scripts, and methodological details, available to facilitate verification and replication of their findings. The editorial team reserves the right to request access to data or additional supporting documentation as part of the review and publication process to ensure the reliability and scientific integrity of published work. This policy is in line with the journal’s commitment to fostering open science and enhancing the quality and impact of plant and animal sciences research.
