Abstract :The main idea of the study is to determine the trends in recent years in the field of animal science, by examining 379 studies with the term `genome-wide association studies` in the title of the article published within the scope of SCI-Expanded between 2007 and 2021, within the scope of bibliometric analysis. In this context, the term of “Genome-Wide Association Studies” was searched in the Web of Science database in the study titles and the bibliometric data of the studies were accessed in plaintext format. The bibliometric results show that GWAS within animal science is developing steadily as a field of scientific research and is currently a highly topical issue. GWAS has been one of the most popular research areas due to its application in many different fields such as cell biology, plant sciences, zoology, animal science, etc. In the light of this information, it can be listed as an important contribution that GWAS studies with bibliometric analysis are still up-to-date and that the studies to be done will increase their contribution to animal science.
