This study is a bibliometric analysis of insecticide resistance research on whitefly carried out globally from 2010 to 2020. The analysis is based on 1198 research articles identified using Web of Science tool, which is processed further using VOSviewer. The results show that there is an increase in the number of articles, particularly from countries like USA and China. Denholm Ian, Liu Shu-Sheng and Xie Wen are identified as the most influential authors, and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Science in China, and the University of Florida and the University of Arizona in USA as key organizations. A total of 198 articles published during this period are highly cited. Pest Management Science and PLOS ONE are the important journals identified. The most common area of the research focus has been on the insecticide resistance of different whitefly species, and the status of resistance against different insecticide compounds. Our findings can act as a useful reference for researchers, and provide insights for directing future research on whitefly insecticide resistance that has potential implications for farming across the world.
