English abstract

The Journal of Natural Rubber Research, published by the Rubber Research Institute of Malaysia since 1929, has played a key role in the dissemination of natural rubber information all over the world. This paper analyses the authorship pattern, the range and frequency of references cited, the extent of acknowledgement and appendix or appendices being included in research articles of natural rubber, the types of collaborative research in natural rubber and the international collaboration scenario as portrayed in the Journal. Results indicated that the trend is towards multi-authorship and a high degree of collaboration between natural rubber researchers.
