茶树(茶树)是一种广泛种植的经济作物,茶是世界上最受欢迎的功能食品。新鲜茶叶(FTLs)在弥合与茶叶种植和茶叶加工密切相关的两个领域中起着至关重要的作用。那些是,茶树生物学和茶叶生物化学。全面概述发展阶段,作者合作,研究课题,以及FTLs研究领域的热点及其时间演变趋势,我们进行了文献计量分析,基于2001-2021年期间发表的关于FTL相关研究的971份出版物,来自WebofScienceCoreCollection。CiteSpace,R包Bibliometrix,和VOSviewer被用于这项研究。结果表明,发展历史大致可以分为三个阶段,即初始阶段,缓慢发展阶段和快速发展阶段。农业与食品化学杂志发表了该领域的大部分文章,而植物科学前沿的总引文和h指数最高。最有影响力的国家,机构,这个领域的作者被确定为中国,中国农业科学院,和小春万,分别。与FTLs相关的研究可以分为三个主要主题:关键基因的调控机制,基本化合物的代谢和特征,和茶树的生长和胁迫反应。最值得关注的热点是先进技术的应用,必需代谢物,叶子颜色变体,和有效的栽培处理。已经从基础生化和酶学研究转变为依赖于多组学技术的分子机制研究。我们还讨论了该领域的未来发展。本研究对研究领域进行了全面的总结,使研究人员更容易了解其发展历史,status,和趋势。
Tea plant (Camellia sinensis) is a widely cultivated cash crop and tea is a favorite functional food in the world. Fresh tea leaves (FTLs) play a critical role in bridging the two fields closely related to tea cultivation and tea processing, those are, tea plant biology and tea biochemistry. To provide a comprehensive overview of the development stages, authorship collaboration, research topics, and hotspots and their temporal evolution trends in the field of FTLs research, we conducted a bibliometric analysis, based on 971 publications on FTLs-related research published during 2001-2021 from Web of Science Core Collection. CiteSpace, R package Bibliometrix, and VOSviewer were employed in this research. The results revealed that the development history can be roughly divided into three stages, namely initial stage, slow development stage and rapid development stage. Journal of Agricultural & Food Chemistry published most articles in this field, while Frontiers in Plant Science held the highest total citations and h-index. The most influential country, institution, and author in this field was identified as China, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and Xiaochun Wan, respectively. FTLs-related research can be categorized into three main topics: the regulation mechanism of key genes, the metabolism and features of essential compounds, and tea plants\' growth and stress responses. The most concerning hotspots are the application of advanced technologies, essential metabolites, leaf color variants, and effective cultivation treatments. There has been a shift from basic biochemical and enzymatic studies to studies of molecular mechanisms that depend on multi-omics technologies. We also discussed the future development in this field. This
study provides a comprehensive summary of the research field, making it easier for researchers to be informed about its development history, status, and trends.
