“…It was possible to identify only two reports. One performs a bibliometric analysis about stress factors affecting agricultural productivity globally (Sisodia et al, 2023) and the other one is a bibliometric analysis describing the progress of piosphere knowledge and its implications for conservation and scientific collaboration (Shahriary et al, 2021). Bibliometric studies carried out in México on agronanotechnology neither on arid zones did not find.…”

The agri-food systems in arid zones face challenges related to climate change, desertification, and soil contamination from agrochemicals' actions, among others. The agronanotechnology can generate alternatives to these problems, but it is necessary to monitor its development to have elements to apply policies that are oriented to the attention of these regions with a social perspective. This scientific paper aims to present provide a study of the situation of agronanotechnology in the arid zones of northern Mexico. Using bibliometric tools, the academic output in the field and map the public research agenda, focusing on providing the set of crops to which the local research is directed was analyzed. Furthermore, the literature associated with the risks to human health and the environment derived from some nanomaterials of agri-food interest and clarify the areas of opportunity and trends was reviewed. The results show a total of 224 research articles authored by 1029 scholars in 161 journals published from 2004 to 2022; that research on this topic reached its highest value in 2018 and then levels off at a value around of ~37%. The findings show a research agenda related to crops of economic interest for the export market like tequila, tomato, avocado, chili, watermelon. In México, agronanotechnology is an emerging field that deals with some crops of economic interest, but its development needs to be intertwined with the needs of rural producers.

“…In 1969, Pritchard introduced the idea of bibliometric analysis to analyze the scientific research trends qualitatively and quantitatively [13]. It involves advanced techniques to find out the impact and contribution of scientific publications and authors and investigates the effectiveness of works, frequency of terms, research trends, location of research, and knowledge gaps [14].…”

“…Universities and institutions may build bench-marking standards from bibliometric data to determine academic achievements for promotion and tenure guidelines in the future. Bibliometric analyses have been carried out on various topics and themes such as biological invasions research [24,25], diabetes [26], biomass energy research [27], food web research [28], human resources training [29], forest carbon sequestration [30], microplastics research [31], industrial wastewater treatments [32], piosphere research [13], and endangered plants [33].…”

A bibliometric analysis of 349 scholarly documents published on the topic plant nativity and endemism from 1991–2022 was carried out using the ‘bibliometrix’ tool, developed through the R programming language. The results revealed a significant increase in the number of publications on plant nativity and endemism research since 1991. Of the total of 349 documents that were analyzed, 38 are single authored documents, and the average number of documents per author is 0.278. Each document has received an average of 33.67 citations, with 3.18 citations per year per document. The relationship between the number of authors and the number of articles that they have published follows a power-law distribution. Based on Bradford’s law, only eight were found to be the core sources. Mexico, followed by the USA, has produced the highest number of documents on plant nativity and endemism. The present study suggests that it is necessary to categorize data on endemism by floristic provinces, not by political subdivisions. Synecological studies are also needed, since endemic plants exist within communities. Models that accurately predict levels of endemism on the basis of easily measurable environmental variables should be useful for the rapid identification of endemic-rich areas. Recognition of the importance of plant endemism and the implementation of conservation measures is crucial for preserving biodiversity hotspots. Both in situ and ex situ conservation efforts are essential for protecting endemic species and preventing their extinction. By integrating these approaches, we can contribute to the long-term conservation and management of endemic plant species.
