Animal breeding became a difficult science when numerous genes influenced economically significant features. The major source of genetic improvement is selection, and as such, the large generation intervals in these strategies lead to reduced rates of improvement. Therefore, breeding control, genetic improvement research, and selection processes are accelerated by genomic selection. This article regarding global research interest trends in genomic selection in animal breeding themes was examined using bibliometric analysis, which employed papers from 1993 to 2024 from the SCI-Expanded, SSCI, AHCI, and E-SCI indexes. Over the period of 31 years, the first 3181 published articles on genomic selection in animal breeding were gathered. Additionally, the study displays trends in co-authorships according to nations and academic institutions as well as co-occurrences of author keywords. There have been more articles since 2010 about the use of genomic selection in animal breeding, building up a sizable library of work that will last until 2024. Among the top academics in the field are Calus MPL, Li J, and Wang Y. The most productive institutions were The United Kingdom's University of Edinburgh, Aarhus University (Denmark) and China Agricultural University. The current hotspots in this field of study include "selection," and "association," according to keyword co-occurrence and frequency analysis. China, the United States, Brazil, Canada, and United Kingdom are the top five countries that produced the most papers with the highest levels of international collaboration and networking. The main topics of current study include prediction, accuracy, association, traits, and selection. New techniques for selection, prediction, accuracy, traits, and association were developed as the discipline matured. Research collaborations across countries, institutions, and writers promote knowledge sharing, effective issue resolution, and superior outcomes.
