Abstract

Avocado's global acceptance has grown, resulting in expanding cultivation, agricultural development, and significant marketing efforts. Publicizing avocado also targets its by-products' nutritional and functional benefits. This is the first bibliometric analysis for avocado. It aims to provide a descriptive structure to identify collaborative patterns and emerging themes in avocado research. Based on the search string used in the article title, the study retrieved 2576 documents from the Scopus database for further analysis. For comparison, we separated the data into two study periods: 1916–2011 and 2012–2021. BibliometriX and VOSviewer software were used to examine the descriptive structure and collaborative patterns, as well as to create maps based on network data. When we compared the two study periods, we identified a changing pattern in descriptive structure, collaboration and research trends. Based on the identified emergent themes of the last decade, we propose that future research focuses on the functional and medicinal properties of avocado, postharvest management and its biological control, plant cultivars and diseases, and physicochemical properties of avocado and its by-products. Further bibliographic support revealed that, in addition to the fruit pulp, non-edible parts of Persea americana (bark, leaves, peel, seeds, and stem), and oil have remarkable concentrations of bioactive compounds with potential biological activity for health benefits.

《波斯美洲磨坊》文献计量学综述。(樟科):农用工业中的绿色黄金

牛油果在全球的认可度不断提高，从而扩大了种植面积，促进了农业发展，并加大了营销力度。宣传鳄梨还针对其副产品的营养和功能益处。这是第一次对鳄梨进行文献计量分析。它的目的是提供一个描述性的结构，以确定鳄梨研究的合作模式和新兴主题。根据文章标题中使用的搜索字符串，该研究从Scopus数据库中检索了2576个文档进行进一步分析。为了比较，我们将数据分为两个研究时期:1916-2011年和2012-2021年。使用BibliometriX和VOSviewer软件检查描述结构和协作模式，并根据网络数据创建地图。当我们比较这两个研究时期时，我们发现在描述结构、合作和研究趋势方面存在变化模式。基于近十年来确定的新兴主题，我们建议未来的研究重点是牛油果的功能和药用特性、采后管理及其生物防治、植物品种和病害、牛油果及其副产品的理化特性。进一步的文献支持表明，除了果肉，美洲波斯的非食用部分(树皮、叶子、果皮、种子和茎)和油具有显著浓度的生物活性化合物，具有潜在的生物活性，对健康有益。
