CANALES, Haymeé. MOLECULAR MARKERS AND THEIR IMPACT IN AGRICULTURAL I+D ACTIVITY: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS. Rev. Protección Veg. [online]. 2007, vol.22, n.1, pp. 57-64. ISSN 2224-4697.

In order to verify the impact of molecular markers in agricultural I+D activity in Cuba and worldwide, a bibliometric analysis about that technology was carried out during the period 1970-2004 (first semester). A retrospective research was carried out in four important international databases, three of them specialized (AGRIS, CAB ABSTRACT, AGRICOLA), and the other of academic cover (Academic Search Elite). Methodological procedures used in sample compilation and analysis, as well as the results and discussions about the studies concerning the topic, were described. In order to provide a more clear vision, the study was presented in two parts: one centralized in the foreign scientific production and the other in the national scientific production. From the informetric analyses and the results obtained in the sample, the evolution and impacts of molecular marker are inferred in the agricultural scientific activity.

Keywords : bibliometry; molecular markers; domain analysis; agricultural I+D activity.
