Abstract :
Objective:Aims to examine the significance of adhering to established accounting standards within the field of plant physiology. It explores how compliance can enhance the accuracy and reliability of research findings, facilitate better resource allocation, and improve overall scientific integrity in the discipline.Methods:Research employs a qualitative analysis of existing literature on accounting standards and their application in scientific research, particularly in plant physiology. A comparative approach is employed to evaluate various case studies, examining how adherence to or deviation from these standards affects research outcomes. Surveys and interviews with experts in both accounting and plant physiology are also conducted to gather insights on best practices and challenges faced in implementing these standards.Results:Findings indicate that compliance with accounting standards significantly improves the transparency and reproducibility of research in plant physiology. Studies that adhered to these standards demonstrated more reliable data management practices, leading to better-informed decision-making and resource utilization. Conversely, instances of non-compliance were associated with discrepancies in data reporting and a lack of accountability, ultimately compromising the validity of research conclusions.Conclusions:Paper contributes to the existing body of knowledge by bridging the gap between accounting principles and scientific research methodologies in plant physiology. It highlights the critical need for interdisciplinary collaboration between accountants and scientists to foster a culture of compliance that enhances the credibility of research outcomes. Insights provided can serve as a foundation for developing standardized protocols that integrate accounting best practices into the scientific research process, thereby promoting integrity & excellence in the field of plant physiology
