Abstract

Common sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a pivotal oilseed crop for global food security, yet sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana) poses a major threat to its yields. This study presents a bibliometric analysis of 337 publications from the Scopus database (1960–2025) using Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. The temporal evolution of publishing activity follows an atypical 4th-degree polynomial model, with a general decline in mean total citations per article. Key contributors were identified: Spain is the leading country; CSIC - Instituto de Agricultura Sostenible (IAS) (Spain), the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops (Serbia), and Northwest A&F University (China) are the most productive institutions. Helia is the core journal, while Pérez-Vich B., Velasco L., and Fernández-Martínez J.M. are the most prolific authors. Collaboration networks are described based on connection maps. Analysis of keywords identified research priorities: “plant breeding”, “physiology”, and “genetics” emerged as Motor Themes; “sunflower” and “broomrape” as Basic Themes; and chemistry or “sesquiterpene” and “lactones” as Niche Themes. “Combining ability”, “mutant line”, and “new breeding material” represent Emerging or Declining Themes. Furthermore, the five most influential publications were distinguished and discussed. These findings provide insights into the current research status and outline emergent trends in addressing the broomrape challenge in sunflower cultivation.
