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    • means things can be out of date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

  1. I used pubmed for this part of the assignment
  2. The search terms I used for this were Sinorhizobium Meliloti and genome.
  3. Most of the results I got were concerned with DNA probes and specific sequences of DNA
  4. I got 20 results by using this database
