CBSE has requested that we standardise on the PubMed citation format throughout the genome browser.

Here is a link to the PubMed Journal Article Citation Format.

PubMed, in turn, uses the ANSI/NISO Z39.29-2005 Bibliographic References standard pdf as the basis for their format standards.


Here is a sample of the approved style:

Bejerano G, Lowe CB, Ahituv N, King B, Siepel A, Salama SR, Rubin EM, Kent WJ, Haussler D. A distal enhancer and an ultraconserved exon are derived from a novel retroposon. Nature. 2006 May 4;441(7089):87-90.


The Publications page in the genome browser has been updated to reflect this style. Please follow this style for all future citations used in the browser.

Details:

  • If there are more than ten authors, list only the first 10 then use et al.
  • If the journal name is abbreviated, do not include periods within the abbreviated name (but do include a period after the journal name, as always).
