BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ In text citation shows full author list?

[lemonicetea]

Hi all:

First of all, i think it is very weired. When I cite following example citation. The full list of author names were appeared in the text.

Code: Select all

@article{Anderson2004647,
   author = {Anderson, K. L. and Billington, J. and Pettigrew, D. and Cota, E. and Simpson, P. and Roversi, P. and Chen, H. A. and Urvil, P. and du Merle, L. and Barlow, P. N. and Medof, M. E. and Smith, R. A. and Nowicki, B. and Le Bouguenec, C. and Lea, S. M. and Matthews, S.},
   title = {An atomic resolution model for assembly, architecture, and function of the Dr adhesins},
   journal = {Mol Cell},
   volume = {15},
   number = {4},
   pages = {647-57},
   year = {2004}
}

The format is generated automatically by Endnote, which should not be a problem. Beside, I have over ten pages references and this is the only citation which shows every author's name in the text as follows.

(Anderson, Billington, Pettigrew, Cota, Simpson, Roversi, Chen, Urvil, du Merle, Barlow, Medof, Smith, Nowicki, Le Bouguenec, Lea and Matthews, 2004)

I am currently using package

Code: Select all

\usepackage[round]{natbib}

and at the end of text

Code: Select all

\bibliographystyle{kluwer}
\bibliography{g://biblio}

Again, all the other reference is fine like

(Saulino et al., 2000; Thanassi et al., 1998)

Secondly, when I delete all the other text and create a minimal working example (MWE). Everything is fine, only one name is appeared in the text. So it is weired, right?

Does anybody know what the reason is?

You have your answer right there. Obviously, the problem is not to be found with the minimal amount of code you've provided, but is being caused by something else.

Starting from your minimal example where things work properly, insert back the rest of your code bit by bit, and note especially which chunk of code being added changes the behavior, and then, most likely, you'll have your answer.

Do you have another reference that has the same first author and same year?

If you do, that could be your problem.


Consider the two references:
Jones, J., Smith, J. and Doe, M. (2007) This is the first paper. Nature 34:56-56.
Jones, J., Jones, M. and Johnson, K. (2007) This is the second paper. Science 38:78-98.

The abbreviated in-text citations for both would be (Jones, 2007). Which one are you referring to?

I've just posted a question about this on the Harvard referencing package... (Took me a couple of hours to track down the problem...)
