Introduction

Latest version:

Current version = Dicty18

Dicty18 and Update29 were released in November 2009.

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 databases used were Pubmed, Agricola, ISI Web of Knowledge, ProQuest digital dissertations, and the USA patent database 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) format.

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:

Dicty18 9455 references
Update 29 478 references

Dicty18 is a superset of the Update29 references.

The current version of the Franke Dictyostelium Literature Library can be downloaded from the Download Area.
