Abstract:

Understanding the latest research hotspots and development trends in the field of banana fusarium wilt was the goal of the present study. Based on the core collection database of Web of Science (WOS), this paper conducted an advanced search on the theme of "banana fusarium wilt ", selected 779 papers published in 30 years from 1993 to 2023, and used CiteSpace visual analysis software. The bibliometrics analysis was conducted from the indicators of the annual number of published papers, subject of published papers, published journals, published countries, institutions, and cooperation between authors, literature co-citations and keywords. The results showed that: (1) from 2009 to 2023, the number of literatures in the field of banana fusarium wilt research showed an overall increasing trend, and the disciplines involved were mainly botany, accounting for 35.7% of the total literatures. The top four academic journals in terms of volume were Frontiers in Microbiology, European Journal of Plant Pathology, Frontiers in Plant Science and Journal of Fungi. (2) China, the United States and India had published more papers in the field of banana fusarium wilt research, but there was less international cooperation. The Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China and Hainan University had published the most papers in China. Shen Qirong and Li Rong from Nanjing Agricultural University and Ruan Yunze from Hainan University were influential researchers in the field of banana fusarium wilt research. (3) The biological control of banana fusarium wilt was still an important focus and research frontier in the field of banana fusarium wilt research. To sum up, there is a lot of basis for the research of banana fusarium wilt in various countries. Through the application of biological control technology of banana fusarium wilt, the suppression of fusarium wilt of banana can promote the healthy growth of banana, and promote the sustainable development of banana industry is the focus of future research.
