基于Web of Science核心合集数据库和CiteSpace中植物内生真菌多样性研究的文献计量学分析

Bibliometric analysis of plant endophytic fungal diversity research based on Web of Science core collection database and CiteSpace

摘要:

【背景】 内生菌几乎存在于所有目前已研究过的植物中，感染内生真菌的植物宿主往往具有生长快速、抗逆境、抗病害、抗天敌等优势。目前，植物内生菌多样性得到了广泛关注，然而现阶段对该领域进行定量统计、分析的研究报道较少。【目的】 对植物内生真菌多样性领域文献运用计量学方法进行分析，探讨该领域的研究现状及研究热点。【方法】 通过文献计量学方法，基于Web of Science (WOS)核心合集数据库，以“endophytic fungal diversity and plant”为检索词进行主题检索，统计1992–2022年间“植物内生真菌多样性”研究文献的刊文数量、期刊、研究机构、主要作者和关键词的分布情况，并利用CiteSpace软件进行可视化分析。【结果】 通过关键词突现分析发现biodiversity (生物多样性)、symbiosis (共生)、soil (土壤) 3个关键词与该领域文献发表量突增的时段密切相关。并通过关键词聚类分析，得到9个关键词标签，具体3个热点研究方向。【结论】 “Endophytic fungal diversity and plant”研究的英文文献数量从2019年开始快速增加，内生真菌多样性、内生真菌促进宿主生长、内生真菌次生代谢产物药用性为现阶段的研究热点。未来应该加强该领域高影响力作者、机构的合作，针对本领域的3个热点及不足展开深入、系统的研究。

Abstract:

[Background] Endophytes exist in almost all plants that have been studied so far, and plant hosts infected with endophytes often experience rapid growth and develop resistance to stress, diseases, and natural enemies. Studies have been conducted regarding the endophyte diversity, while few studies involve quantitative statistics and analysis. [Objective] To study the current research status and hotspots of endophytic fungal diversity by bibliometrics. [Methods] The relevant articles were retrieved from the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection with the keywords of “endophytic fungal diversity and plant” and the time interval of 1992-2022. The number of articles, journals, research institutions, main authors, and keywords were analyzed and the distribution was visualized by CiteSpace. [Results] The keyword burst analysis showed that biodiversity, symbiosis, and soil were closely related to the period of article surging in this field. The cluster analysis of keywords yielded 9 keyword tags in 3 hot research directions. [Conclusion] The number of articles published in English about endophytic fungal diversity and plant has grown rapidly since 2019. Endophytic fungal diversity, promotion of host growth by endophytic fungi, and medicinal properties of secondary metabolites of endophytic fungi are currently the focuses of research in this field. In the future, high-impact authors and institutions should enhance collaboration and carry out in-depth and systematic research on the three hot spots and shortcomings in this field.
