Current version = Dicty17
Dicty17 and Update28 were released in March, 2008.
The Franke Dictyostelium Reference Library is the continuing
effort to compile all published references relating to Dictyostelium
(related papers on Polysphondylium and other social amoebae
are also included). References are carefully inspected one at a time
for accuracy; improvements and corrections are continually being done.
The Database is more than a simple subset of such general reference
databases like MEDLINE.
In addition to being provided in a convenient and focussed form,
the Database includes material that is not covered in MEDLINE, such
as theses and dissertations, books and book chapters, and articles
in journals not covered by MEDLINE. Patents are also included as
a reference type. We are continually updating and improving the Database
in collaboration with the entire Dictyostelium research
community. We provide the Database in the popular EndNote(TM) and
the Refer/BibIX formats; details can be found About
the File Formats on a separate page.
The references are divided into 7 reference types:
- journal article
- book chapter
- book
- thesis
- conference proceeding
- magazine article
- patent <- introduced with Dicty15
Magazine Article is a default reference type in Endnote. Book
reviews, News and Views, commentaries, editorials, and newspaper articles
are lumped together in this group.
Counts:
| Dicty17 |
8977 references |
| Update 28 |
382 references |
Dicty17 is a superset of the Update28 references.
The current version of the Franke Dictyostelium Literature Library
can be downloaded from the Download Area.
