Category:Journals - PestinfoWiki

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:01:45 +0100

The Pest Information Wiki has a literature database where each publication page contains information on which pests, diseases, or weeds the publication deals with. Related information like which research topic, host plants or field location (country or part of a country) the article has been covering can also be included in a publication page. These data can then be retrieved on other pages. For example, a page on a pest can then display lists of literature which are relevant to this pest, like lists sorted by research topics (e.g. Bibliography:Leptinotarsa decemlineata) or lists of distribution records or host plant records (e.g. see the top left in the page Leptinotarsa decemlineata).

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 14:26:52 +0100

biowikifarm.net is a shared technical platform supporting a number of mediawiki installations used by a diverse array of projects in biology, and especially biodiversity research. The primary purpose of the shared platform is to be able to maintain the published data over a long time period and to work more efficiently and distribute administrative and maintenance work among several partners. Furthermore, the biowikifarm operates a shared media repository, enabling synergies in re-using media content. The biowikifarm is part of the activities of Plazi. It is presently primarily maintained on ViBRANT EU FP7 funds through the Julius Kühn Institute (JKI) (programming and management) and the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem (BGBM) (technical support and hosting). The IT Center of the Bavarian Natural History Collections (SNSB) is giving a guarantee for long-term online availabilty should dedicated project funds run out. In addition, users of the biowikifarm provide a significant contribution to the management of the farm. [Information of the supplier]
