Abstract: The study examined the collaborative measures and authorship pattern of research publications in shrimp culture available in SCOPUS database during 2009 to 2019. The aim of this study is to identify collaborative measures like degree of collaboration, collaborative coefficient and collaborative index of these publications. A total of 3851 bibliographic records of publications were downloaded and analyzed in a bibliometric analytical method using R-studio software and MS excel. The analysis of bibliographic records of the total 3851 publications reveals that the entire publications were contributed by 18489 authors and among the type of publications, Journal articles occupied predominant position sharing 88.68% (n = 3415) percent of total study data. Contribution of Multi authors is high compared to single authored publications. Remarkable increase has been observed in the trend of authorship pattern and Degree of collaboration and Collaboration coefficient and Collaboration index in research publications of shrimp culture during the study period. Out of 3851 papers, 165 (4.28%) papers were contributed by single authors and rest of the publications were authored by multi authors. The Degree of collaboration has been increased from 0.924 in 2009 to 0.964 in 2019. Highest value of degree of collaboration - 0.979 was observed in 2017. The Collaborative coefficient has been increased from 0.67 in 2009 to 0.72 in 2019. Collaboration index of research publications increased from 4.12 in 2009 to 8.28 in 2019. The average collaboration index was 5.78 during the study span.
