Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

Molecular approaches to the study of myiasis-causing larvae.
No full textAmong arthropod diseases affecting animals, larval infections - myiases - of domestic and wild animals have been considered important since ancient times. Besides the significant economic losses to livestock worldwide, myiasis-causing larvae have attracted the attention of scientists because some parasitise humans and are of interest in forensic entomology. In the past two decades, the biology, epidemiology, immunology, immunodiagnosis and control methods of myiasis-causing larvae have been focused on and more recently the number of molecular studies have also begun to increase. The 'new technologies' (i.e. molecular biology) are being used to study taxonomy, phylogenesis, molecular identification, diagnosis (recombinant antigens) and vaccination strategies. In particular, more in depth molecular studies have now been performed on Sarcophagidae, Calliphoridae and flies of the Oestridae sister group. This review discusses the most topical issues and recent studies on myiasis-causing larvae using molecular approaches. In the first part, PCR-based techniques and the genes that have already been analysed, or are potentially useful for the molecular phylogenesis and identification of myiasis-causing larvae, are described. The second section deals with the more recent advances concerning taxonomy, phylogenetics, population studies, molecular identification, diagnosis and vaccination
