Abstract: Chickpeas, with its unique resources, are worth attention of researchers. Using Bibliometric methods to analyze the temporal-spatial and content changes of chickpeas research, we can have a new perspective of this research field and its development trend. Through bibliometric analysis of patent literatures in nearly a century and temporal and spatial distribution of SCI papers, the author found that there were relevant researches in Asia, the America, Europe and Australia, and these researches all had a comparatively long history. China's research on chickpea started late, but developed rapidly since 1999. Up to now, research on chickpea in China has become a large network of disciplines, which is content-rich, and with interdisciplinary development and emerging research hotspots. Analysis showed that the fast-growing patent on chickpea in Xinjiang has contributed greatly to its research development in China, chickpea study has formed a large network structure, including more than 140 research disciplines. In recent years, molecular markers and genetic diversity have attracted special attention, research papers are forming an extensive network of cooperation among different countries, patent numbers are growing fast, but cooperation among countries is not closely.
