Scientific paper

The value of the Hubble constant relies on velocity and distance determinations either of field or cluster galaxies. Emphasis is put on the effects of statistical biases which affect the calibrating relations, such as the Tully-Fisher one. The Malmquist bias, for field galaxies, and the cluster incompleteness bias lead to an overestimation of the value of H0. When correcting for these effects, the Hubble constant appears to be most probably in the range 65-75 km s-1Mpc-1.
