[1] reference 1 [2] reference 2

[1] reference 1; reference 2
?

If the references have key1, key2. Citing with a star combines them.
instead of \cite{key1, key2}, using \cite{key1, *key2} gives the desired result.
Cheers.
Note: This was achieved when using revtex 4.1, which implements a syntax similar to mcite. The same can be achieved in standard classes by loading mcite, e.g.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{mcite}
\begin{document}
\cite{article-full,*book-full}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{xampl}
\end{document}

How does this solution address the stated objective of wanting a citation call-out of the form "[1] reference 1; reference 2"? – Mico Apr 18 '15 at 02:20

2@Mico when you put an asterisk in front of the second key, in the references at the end of the document you will have a combined bibliographic entry---which is what I wanted. – umayfindurself Apr 18 '15 at 10:02
\documentclass{...}and ending with\end{document}. – adn Apr 17 '15 at 17:49
