Abstract
For ages, the world has primarily depended on the rich diversity of flora and fauna for therapeutic lead molecules. Once such flora of biological importance is plants included in the genus , as evidenced in Ayurveda, Charaka Samhita, and Sushruta Samhita. With this backdrop, the present review aims to scrutinize the work done between the time frame of 1999-2021 on the genus based on bibliometric parameters by analyzing manuscripts indexed in one of the most popular databases, the Web of Science. The bibliometric review was carried out using VOSviewer software to demonstrate the research gap in this thematic area. In this, the various analyses carried out included co-occurrence analysis, citations analysis, and analysis of funding agencies. From the result, it could be seen that most researchers focused on the pharmacognostic/phytochemical evaluation of . while at the same time leading to a shortage of research on their pharmacological and pharmaceutical aspects.
