Research trend of bivalves aquaculture in Southeast Asia during two decades based on bibliometric analysis in supporting 14
Summary
Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of bivalve aquaculture research in Southeast Asia from 2005 to 2025, mapping research trends, focal species, and publication patterns across the region that hosts exceptional marine bivalve biodiversity. The analysis identified key research gaps and trajectory shifts relevant to supporting sustainable development goal 14 on life below water.
Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, is the center of the world’s marine biodiversity, especially for bivalve groups such as oysters, mussels, clams, and cockles. This group has high economic value, both as a consumption commodity and industrial raw material. This study analyses trends of research and focused species in bivalve aquaculture research in Southeast Asia during 2005–2025 using a bibliometric approach. From 3,209 initial articles, 75 relevant articles were analyzed using the VOSviewer and Biblioshiny tools. The results show that research focuses on issues of microplastic pollution, genetic variation, growth rate, and environmental monitoring. Publications are dominated by the Philippines and Vietnam, while Indonesia’s scientific contribution is still low despite its great potential. The most frequent studied species are Perna viridis and Tegillarca granosa. This reveals that there are still great opportunities in bivalve’s aquaculture research in supporting the 14th SDG, “Life below water”.
