Bibliometric Analysis of Plant Germplasm Research, 2004-2024

A bibliometric analysis synthesizes 2,303 Chinese and English publications from 2004 to 2024. The data was sourced from Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure by Wenjun Wang. It tracks the evolution of research on plant core germplasm collections.

Use Cases

• Analyze keyword evolution trends based on the described paradigm shift from phenotype-based to allele-driven research
• Identify leading contributors and collaborative hubs based on the mention of China and the United States
• Study research trajectory phases based on the described foundational, consolidation, and predictive stages
• Assess taxonomic bias in agricultural research based on the mention of a focus on major cereal crops

Strengths

• Analysis covers 2,303 publications providing a substantial corpus
• Integrated bilingual perspective from both Chinese (CNKI) and English (WoS) sources
• Temporal coverage spans 20 years from 2004 to 2024

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Data is contained in a 17.3 KB DOCX file, indicating a limited scope likely focused on summary findings
