<i>Pluchea lanceolata</i>: A Noxious Perennial Weed
No full textPluchea lanceolata(DC.) C. B. Clarke # PLULA is an aggressive, pernicious, rhizomatous evergreen weed in the Asteraceae. In other literature,P. lanceolataOliv. & Hiern has also been mentioned (Anonymous 1992, pp. 731 and 1147). With heavy root branches and dense subterranean parts,P. lanceolatais a common weed of sandy and saline tracts of the dry plains of the northwestern parts of India (Dakshini and Sabina 1981; Inderjit 1993; Rice 1995). It also occurs in North Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan (Nasir and Ali 1972; Oliver 1885). In India, it occurs both in cultivated and uncultivated areas. It causes considerable damage to winter and summer season crops. The control measures through conventional methods such as deep plowing, burning of aboveground parts, and herbicides are found to be unsuccessful. This rapidly spreading perennial weed apparently cannot be used for forage because of its disagreeable bitter taste (Anonymous 1976). Allelopathy has been reported as a probable cause ofP. lanceolatainterference (Inderjit and Dakshini 1990, 1992b, 1994a, 1994b, 1996a, 1996b; Inderjit et al. 1996).</jats:p

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
