A bibliometric analysis is conducted to study the history and status of rice research from 1985 to 2014. We find that the number of publications has grown rapidly over the past 30 years, especially in Asia. However, the gap of research output quality between Asian countries/regions and USA is obvious. The keywords co-occurrence analysis shows that the genetic analysis for agronomic traits is a hot topic. It could be expected that more technologies such as metabonomics and proteomics will be integrated to accelerate the comprehensive analysis of rice genome function.

Abstract


A bibliometric analysis is conducted to study the history and status of rice research from 1985 to 2014. We find that the number of publications has grown rapidly over the past 30 years, especially in Asia. However, the gap of research output quality between Asian countries/regions and USA is obvious. The keywords co-occurrence analysis shows that the genetic analysis for agronomic traits is a hot topic. It could be expected that more technologies such as metabonomics and proteomics will be integrated to accelerate the comprehensive analysis of rice genome function.
