Research evolution of flat peach (<i>Prunus persica</i> (L.) Batsch): a decadal bibliometric analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The flat peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.), characterized by its oblate shape and determined by a known genetic inversion, is a high-value cultivar gaining global market share. Mapping the intellectual landscape of its research is crucial to consolidate knowledge and direct future scientific and breeding programs.

Methods

A comprehensive bibliometric analysis was conducted on a curated dataset of forty open-access research articles published between 2010 and 2024, sourced from Web of Science and Scopus. Following rigorous data deduplication, the bibliometrix R package was employed to analyze publication trends, collaboration networks, and keyword co-occurrence patterns. Collaboration networks were subsequently visualized and analyzed using VOSviewer.
