Resumo

O gênero Caladium tem relevância histórica na horticultura ornamental, mas também vem sendo investigado em áreas relacionadas à biotecnologia, à fisiologia vegetal e à proteção de plantas. Apesar disso, a produção científica sobre o gênero ainda se mostra dispersa, o que dificulta a identificação de tendências, de eixos temáticos consolidados e de lacunas de pesquisa. Nesse contexto, este estudo teve como objetivo realizar uma análise bibliométrica da produção científica sobre Caladium indexada na Web of Science. Foram analisados 260 registros publicados entre 1936 e agosto de 2025, utilizando o pacote Bibliometrix no ambiente R, com base em indicadores de produção, citações, autores, fontes, instituições, países e estrutura temática da literatura. Os resultados evidenciaram o predomínio histórico da horticultura ornamental, com destaque para a University of Florida e a revista HortScience, além da expansão recente dos estudos em biotecnologia, micropropagação, diversidade genética e análises transcriptômicas. Também foram identificadas contribuições em fitopatologia, remediação ambiental e manejo de nematoides. Conclui-se que a literatura sobre Caladium vem ampliando seu escopo científico, embora ainda persistam lacunas em entomologia, fitopatologia e no manejo químico de plantas daninhas.

Palavras-chave: bibliometria; horticultura ornamental; fitossanidade; biotecnologia; Web of Science.
