Perhaps the solution needs to come from the JabRef mail list.

My scientific references are maintained in a JabRef database. There are a
number of these that are used in the article, and I've no idea how to
extract only the cited references into a separate .bib file to send along
with the .tex file.

  A pointer to what I should read to learn how to do this will be much
appreciated.

Hi, Rich,
in LyX:
File > export > Latex (plain)

in a terminal:
latex yourfile
latex yourfile
latex yourfile
bibtex yourfile
which produces an yourfile.aux

in Jabref:
Tools > new subdata based on AUX file
in the window which opens:
Reference data base: yourbibfile
Latex AUX file browse, is in same directory as your lyx file and .tex file.

This produces a bib file containing ONLY the used references (and tells you, if some are missing).

I am on Linux Debian

Hope it works for you
Wolfgang
