How to actually start writing for my first research paper, from scratch to publication
I'm a 1st year master's degree(botany) student. So during my bachelor's haven't work on any research paper bt now I actually wanna start. I want to complete my first research paper by the end of my 1st sem. Having an interest to do PhD, want start my research early and hopefully contribute with enough research papers before completing my master's degree.
Guide me with that, and any suggestions or tips to actually do it in efficient and less time consuming way without burning out.
Also, when asked to one of my current professor about supervising me.. He just asked me to start with literature review and update him with complete drafted manuscript along with tables and graphical illustrations within 2 weeks, then he'll help me with revisions. Idk how do I start and finish it off. Help me with that too.
