Consideraciones taxonómicas y distribución de Dioscorea glandulosa (Dioscoreaceae)
Asesor Patricia N.; Eva Bulacio. 2017. “Consideraciones taxonómicas y distribución de Dioscorea glandulosa (Dioscoreaceae)”. Lilloa 54 (1). En el presente artículo se amplía el área de distribución de Dioscorea glandulosa (Dioscoreaceae) a las provincias de Jujuy y Salta, especie conocida hasta el momento sólo para las provincias de Chaco y Misiones. Se presenta una detallada descripción, una clave para diferenciarla de las especies afines, mapas, ilustraciones y fotografías
Berberis fiebrigii (Berberidaceae), su presencia en Argentina
Ayarde, Hugo; Eva Bulacio. 2017. “ Berberis fiebrigii (Berberidaceae), su presencia en Argentina”. Lilloa 54 (1). En este artículo, sobre la base de colectas realizadas en las Sierras de Calilegua (Jujuy), se cita por primera vez para Argentina a Berberis fiebrigii C. K. Schneid. (Berberidaceae). Berberis fiebrigii es una especie de porte arbustivo que crece por encima de los 2000 m en el nivel superior de los bosques de montaña, desde el centro sur de Bolivia hasta el noroeste de Argentina, siendo el de las Sierras de Calilegua el registro más austral de la especie y el único conocido hasta el presente en territorio argentino. Esta especie se caracteriza por tener inflorescencias paniculadas, flores pequeñas (4-5 mm de diámetro) y frutos desprovistos de estilo. Se incluye una descripción detallada de la especie, ilustraciones, fotografías y una clave para diferenciarla de las especies afines
Estudio de la morfología polínica en especies de Berberis (Berberidaceae) del noroeste de Argentina
García, María E.; Nora J. F. Reyes; María L. Espeche; Eva Bulacio; Hugo Ayarde. 2016. “Estudio de la morfología polínica en especies de Berberis (Berberidaceae) del noroeste de Argentina”. Lilloa 53 (1). Se analizó la morfología polínica de cinco especies que habitan las Sierras de Calilegua (Jujuy, Argentina): B. argentinensis Hosseus, B. calilehua Ayarde & Bulacio, B. commutata Eichler, B. jobii Orsi y B. lilloana Job. Las muestras provie- nen de material fresco y fueron procesadas según las técnicas convencionales de acetólisis y polen natural. Se tomaron fotos con microscopio óptico (MO) y microscopio electrónico de barrido (MEB). Los granos son asimétricos, apolares, de ámbito más o menos circular, ta- maño grande (42 a 56 ?m), espiroaperturados, bordes de los colpos irregulares. En algunas especies los colpos dividen a la superficie en placas más o menos poligonales o circulares. En base a estas diferencias se pueden considerar tres grupos: 1) B. argentinensis y B. jobii predominan los granos espiroaperturados, psilados, escasamente perforados, fosulados. 2) B. commutata se manifiestan los dos tipos de aberturas, pero prevalecen los que presentan placas poligonales. La superficie es psilada pero densamente perforada fosulada y 3) B. lilloa- na y en B. calilehua sobresalen los granos que presentan placas poligonales y la superficie es levemente rugulada, densamente fosulada perforada
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
