An analysis of 5317 articles and reviews published in 46 Indian science journals indexed by Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) during 2006 indicated that these journals predominantly published domestic papers. About 40 percent of the papers published in these journals were cited in the international literature during January 2006-June 2009. The proportion of cited papers and the rate of citation varied for domestic, foreign and collaborative papers, as well as among disciplines and publishers. The analysis indicated that collaborative papers had the highest rate of citation per paper. The Indian Journal of Medical Research published by Indian Council of Medical Research, New Delhi had the highest citation impact. Highest number of papers was cited in the discipline of medicine.  [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
