This study aims to assess the growth in overall publication output in ethnobotany as well as provide a systematic examination of the history of ethnobotanical publications using reference publication year spectroscopy (RPYS). The study is based on 5201 papers published between 1974 and 2019 covering 290 006 non‐distinct cited references (CRs), indexed in science citation index‐expanded (SCI‐Expanded) of web of science (WoS). The regression analysis indicated a compound annual growth rate of approximately 11% globally in ethnobotanical publications and the volume of publications doubles every approximately six years. The reference publication period was divided into four sub‐periods in which a total of 31 peaks are clearly identifiable, including five peaks from the first period (earliest to 1800), ten from the second (1801–1900), nine from the third (1901–1950) and seven from the last period (1951–2000). A total 44 publications were found to have been especially influential and landmark. Out of them, 31 (70%) were books and 11 (25%) were articles. Out of the 11 articles, 5 (45%) were published in the same journal (Economic Botany). The first period had the lowest number of publications (5), including classic books like the Spanish translation of Dioscorides' Materia Medica and Carolus Linnaeus' Systema naturæ. Interestingly, about 30% of the studies that laid the foundation of ethnobotany and are discussed in this paper come from South Africa, pointing to the contribution of the African Continent to the foundation of the field of ethnobotany.

通过参考出版年光谱法(RPYS)检测对民族植物学发展的开创性研究贡献

这项研究旨在评估民族植物学整体出版物产量的增长,并使用参考出版年光谱法(RPYS)对民族植物学出版物的历史进行系统检查。这项研究基于1974年至2019年发表的5201篇论文,涵盖了290006篇未明确引用的参考文献(CR),并在《科学网络(WoS)》的《科学引文索引扩展》(SCI-Expanded)中进行了索引。回归分析表明,民族植物出版物的全球复合年增长率约为11%,出版物的数量每六年大约翻一番。参考出版物时期分为四个子时期,其中总共可以清楚地识别出31个峰,包括从第一个时期(最早到1800年)的五个峰,从第二个时期(1801-1900年)开始的十个峰,第三期(1901-1950)中有九种,最后一期(1951-2000)中有七种。总共发现44份出版物具有特别的影响力和里程碑。其中31本书(70%)是书籍,11本书(25%)是文章。在这11篇文章中,有5篇(占45%)发表在同一期刊(《经济植物学》)上。第一期的出版物数量最少(5),包括经典书籍,如《 Dioscorides》的西班牙文译本。本草卡洛斯·林奈的《自然系统》。有趣的是,大约30%奠定了民族植物学基础的研究来自南非,指出了非洲大陆对民族植物学领域的贡献。
