No full textFig. 1. Phylogenetic relationship between strain BS05T and other related species of the genus Brevibacterium. The tree was reconstructed using the maximum-likelihood method based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Bootstrap values (expressed as percentages of 1000 replications) greater than 50 % are shown at branch points. Filled circles indicate that the corresponding nodes were also recovered in the tree generated with maximum-parsimony and neighbour-joining algorithms. Spelaeicoccus albus D3-40T (HF570029) was used as an outgroup.

No full textDESCRIPTION OF BREVIBACTERIUM HANKYONGI SP. NOV. Brevibacterium hankyongi (hank.yong′ i. N.L. gen. n. hankyongi pertaining to Hankyong National University, Republic of Korea, where taxonomic studies of this taxon were performed). Cells are Gram-positive, strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod shaped (0.3–1.0 µm wide; 1.3–2.8 µm long). Colonies grown on R2A agar plates for 2 days are smooth, convex, opaque and milky-white to creamy in colour. Positive for catalase and oxidase activities. Growth occurs at 18–42 Ǫ C and pH 6.0–7.0 with 0–6.0 % NaCl (w/v). Does not grow at 15 and 45 Ǫ C. Optimum growth occurs at 30 Ǫ C and pH 6.5 without NaCl (w/v) supplement. In the API 20NE and ZYM kits, enzyme activity results are positive for alkaline phosphatase, esterase, leucine arylamidase and cystine arylamidase, and negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose acidification, arginine dihydrolase, urease, b- glucosidas, a- galactosidase, b- galactosidase, b- glucuronidase, a- glucosidase, b- glucosidase, N -acetyl-b- glucosaminidase, a- mannosidase, a- fucosidase, trypsin, a- chymotrypsin, acid phosphatase, naphthol-AS-BIphosphohydrolase, valine arylamidase, esterase lipase and lipase. In the API 20NE and 32GN kits, positive assimilated compounds are: malate, citrate, phenyl-acetate, propionate, caprate, 3-hydroxy-butyrate, 4-hydroxy-benzoate, 5-ketogluconate, L- histidine, L- rhamnose, N - acetyl-D- glucosamine, sucrose, maltose, suberate, L- alanine, glycogen, 3-hydroxybenzoate and L- serine, and negatively assimilates: acetate, lactate, malonate, itaconate, D- ribose, inositol, L- proline, 2-ketogluconate, salicin, melibiose, L- fucose, D- sorbitol, D- mannitol, D- glucose, L- arbinose, D- mannose, maltose, gluconate, caprate and adipate. The quinones are MK-8(H 2) and MK-7(H 2), and anteiso-C 15: 0, anteiso-C 17: 0, iso-C 16: 0 and iso-C 15: 0 are the major cellular fatty acids. The major polar lipids is phosphatidylglycerol. The peptidoglycan of strain BS05 T contains the amino acid meso -diaminopimelic acid. 15: 0 The type strain, isolated from sea water, Jeju Island, Republic of Korea, is BS05 T (=KACC 18875 T =LMG 29562 T). The DNA G+C content of the type strain is 62.3 mol%.Published as part of Choi, Kang Duk, Siddiqi, Muhammad Zubair, Liu, Qingmei, Muhammad Shafi, Siddiqi, Durrani, Yasser, Lee, Soon Yeol, Kang, Myung-Suk & Im, Wan Taek, 2018, Brevibacterium hankyongi sp. nov., isolated from compost, pp. 2783-2788 in International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology 68 (9) on pages 2786-2787, DOI: 10.1099/ijsem.0.002886, http://zenodo.org/record/622380
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
No full textWe 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
