B.Sc Botany is not enough for ICMR JRF exam. You need to complete Master's Degree in respective discipline with at least 55% marks from a recognized University for ICMR JRF. There is relaxation of 5% marks for candidates who belong SC/ST and Physically handicapped candidates.

If you want to apply for JRF exams with B.Sc Botany qualification then you can try ICAR JRF which required only a Bachelor degree in basic sciences with 60% marks.

If you are only interested in ICMR JRF then you must take admission in M.Sc degree and complete it with at least 55% marks.
