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
An improved protocol for the production of AFLP markers in complex genomes by means of capillary electrophoresis
No full textThe amplified fragment-length polymorphism (AFLP) technology is a recently introduced method to investigate genomes of different complexity, from microbial to higher organisms. It is applied to purposes as diverse as identification of species, strain and varieties, investigation of genetic diversity within and between populations, simple and complex trait mapping, and construction of linkage and physical maps. This technology has been designed on the use of primers labelled with radioactivity and on AFLP fragment separation on sequencing gel. We show that the original EcoRI/TaqI AFLP protocol does not perform appropriately when transferred to fluorescent labelling and capillary electrophoresis (CE), and propose an improved protocol for the production of high-quality AFLP markers in fish, rodents and artiodactyles by means of the Beckman-Coulter CEQ2000 automatic DNA sequencer. In addition, we describe the procedure routinely used in our laboratory to obtain binary matrices from AFLP profiles with the aid of Genographer free-share software (vers. 1.6.0, J.J. Benham, Montana State University), able to elaborate original fragment data and convert them to standard graphical formats for phylogenetic analyses. Comparison with radioactive AFLPs in goats confirmed the reliability of the protocol developed for CE. In fact, 107 fragments generated by two primer combinations and identified by both techniques were attributed the same scoring. Compared with traditional methods, the use of capillary systems and automated analysis increases data throughput and scoring reliability, decreasing the overall experimental error
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
