Abstract:

To understand the research hotspots and development trends in the field of sweet potato pests and diseases, and to provide reference for sweet potato pest and disease research, based on the visual analysis software CiteSpace, a total of 1648 sweet potato pest-related literature from 2000-2021 in CNKI Knowledge Network database and WOS core collection database were analyzed. The most published literature on sweet potato pests and diseases was from the United States and China in that order; Xie Yiping's team and Chen Shulong's team were the author teams who published the most articles on domestic diseases and pests, respectively, while Clark C A's team and Haraguchi D's team were the author teams who published the most articles on international diseases and pests, respectively; there was close cooperation between international research institutions and teams, but less cooperation between domestic research institutions and teams; Plant Disease and Journal of Economic Entomology were the international journals with the highest number of articles on diseases and pests, respectively; keyword analysis showed that research in Chinese literature focused on stem nematode disease and sweet potato weevil, while English literature focused on sweet potato virus disease and Bemisia tabaci. For sweet potato virus disease, Bemisia tabaci, sweet potato stem nematode and sweet potato weevil, which seriously restrict the development of sweet potato industry, as well as the newly occurred pests and diseases such as sweet potato stem rot, sweet potato basal rot and sweet potato root knot nematode, research on smart detection and early warning, spreading mechanism, functional gene mining, selection and breeding of resistant varieties and precise target application will gradually become the hot spots.
