This study examines the impact of climate change on pepper cultivation globally and in Türkiye. Pepper, which thrives in warm climates, faces challenges such as temperature fluctuations, water scarcity and soil salinity due to climate change. Using VOSviewer for bibliometric analysis, the research shows a fourfold increase in studies over the last decade and highlights five main clusters: global climate change, pepper plant biology and genetics, responses to abiotic stresses, agricultural production practices and sustainable agriculture. The study highlights the importance of understanding the effects of abiotic stresses on pepper plants in order to develop adaptive strategies. It calls for continued research to ensure sustainable pepper production that addresses food security under changing climatic conditions. The analysis provides insights into the biological and genetic responses of pepper plants to climate change, highlighting the need for resilient agricultural practices and improved crop management.
