Class Notes week 10
- To access database pages go through the LMU link
- journal availibility comes through PubMed central if it is funded by the government
Open Access Journals
- Authors submit article to publishers and then pay to have it published
- How well are the quality control standards?
- Copyright rules are in flux
- most databases are public access
Google Scholar
- serves as a key word search
- date order is all over the place
- means things can be out of date
Pubmed
- also serves as a keyword search
- Advanced search= use the meSH terms
- For our species we need to find a reference genome = the main reference strain
- generally the earliest strain by date is the reference genome
Individual Homework
- I used pubmed for this part of the assignment
- The search terms I used for this were Sinorhizobium Meliloti and genome.
- Most of the results I got were concerned with DNA probes and specific sequences of DNA
- I got 20 results by using this database
