基于文献计量的稻瘟病研究水平分析与比较

Analysis and comparison of research on the development of rice blast based on the bibliometric analysis

为客观分析国际水稻稻瘟病研究的发展动态,了解我国稻瘟病研究水平及与世界先进水平的差距,为水稻病害科研工作者和决策者制订稻瘟病研究策略提供参考依据,采用了Web of Science引文数据库,对1910～2011年间该库收录的水稻稻瘟病研究文献居世界前10位的国家、科研机构、期刊以及高被引作者等进行了计量分析。结果表明,检索获得该期间发表的水稻稻瘟病研究文献10 407篇,以美国、日本、中国、菲律宾、韩国、德国、法国、英国、印度及荷兰为世界稻瘟病研究十强,国际水稻研究所(IRRI)在稻瘟病研究中占有明显优势。美国在期刊、研究机构、作者等方面均占据了绝对优势。我国浙江大学和中国科学院位于高发文机构前10名。中国在稻瘟病研究中高被引论文数量与发文总量所处的地位不相称,缺少高水平研究论文的现象值得注意。水稻稻瘟病研究的热点领域是对抗性基因以及分子标记等研究。由此可进一步证明,Web of Science是了解世界范围内稻瘟病领域发展动态的重要数据库。但由于该数据库的"精品"特性,以及对英语来源文献的偏好性,要了解非英语来源文献所代表国家的相应学科发展动态,还应辅以其它相应数据库。

To analyze the development trend in the research of rice blast objectively in the world, and provide the reference for the researchers and the strategy makers, a bibliometrics study on the top ten countries, research institutes, journals and high-cited authors in the field of blast indexed was carded out by the Web of science dur- ing 1910-2011 using regular searching way. The results indicated that among the all nations, the top 10 ones were the U. S. , Japan, China, Philippines, South Korea, Germany, France, Britain, India and the Nether- lands. Philippine Scholars and the International Rice Research Institute （IRRI） had the clear advantage on the research of blast. The rank of the joumals, research institutions and authors were overwhelmingly dominated by the U. S. , Zhejiang University and Chinese Academy of Sciences were in the top ]0 publishing institutions. The advantage of blast research in china was the high quantity but quality, so the lack of high-level research papers on blast in china should be given high concem. The hot area of the blast research was the resistance of the gene and QTLs etc. Above evidence further indicate that Web of Science, as the high-level data base of rice disease research, prefers top quality and English articles. Therefore, other databases should be supplemented if we want to learn the development of the research articles from Non-English countries.
