Visualization Analysis of the Plant Databases based on Web of Science
In order to explore the research status,hotspots and trends of plant databases.This paper uses SCI-EXPANDED as the data source,the core dataset of Web of Science(WOS),and uses Citespace,VOSviewer,Scimago Graphica bibliometric software and Origin data analysis tools to vis-ually analyze the relevant literature of plant databases published between 2004 and 2022 from the as-pects of publication volume,authors,countries,institutions and keywords.The results show that the number of publications in this field is gradually increasing.The author with the highest number of articles is from Su Zhen of China Agricultural University,China,the United States and Germany are the main countries for research in this field,and the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the French National Center for Scientific Research are the main research institutions in this field.The most pro-lific journal in this field is Nucleic Acids Research,accounting for 17.09%.Hot high-frequency keywords are database,identification,evolution,resource,etc.Plant databases are divided accord-ing to the different keyword clustering topics:ecological database,medicinal plant data,omics data-base and genetic resources database.The results of keyword emergence analysis show that predic-tion,expression and diversity are emerging keywords in the past three years,which can be regarded as new trends in the field of plant database research.
