“…Generally among eukaryotes, about forty-three viral families are known to have forged endogenous relationships with their hosts. These endogenous viruses (EVs) are hosted by simplest life forms like amoeba, algae to higher taxa such as amphibians, annelids, arachnids, avians, cnidarians, collembolids, crustaceans, echinoderms, fish, fungi, ichthyosporeans, insects, mammals, molluscs, nematodes, oomycetes, plants, platyhelminths, reptiles, tunicates, and unspecified heterokonts (Hurst 2022 ). The ERVs constitute a significant part of the host genome.…”

Endogenous retrovirus (ERV) research amalgamates host-retroviral coevolutionary, phylogenomic, infection, immunity, and cellular studies in various hosts ranging from fish to humans. Henceforth, a bibliometric analysis of these publications may aid in the identification of trends in ERV research. It was the foremost bibliographic study, with the key aim to conduct the bibliometric network analysis (e.g. co-authorship, co-occurrence, citation, bibliographic coupling, and co-citation analysis) to find the most prolific authors, organizations, and countries in ERV research, based on the mapping of bibliographic data. Second, the mapping based on text data comprised to chalk out the research trend over the time. The global literature about endogenous retroviruses published between 1985 and Sep 2021 was searched in the Web of Science (Core Collection) database using the “ENDOGENOUS RETROVIRUS” keyword. The bibliometric analysis of this dataset was carried out using VOSviewer version 1.6.17. According to findings, English was the de facto language of these publications, and 2157 were original articles. Among 2939 published documents, “endogenous retrovirus” was the most frequent keyword. Moreover, it revealed the United States as a core contributor to studies on the ERV. The Journal of Virology published a substantial amount of manuscripts in ERV. Robert Koch Institute and Harvard University were leading organizations for research in this field. The application of ERV research from China could be the research hotspot to follow in the coming years. Current bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive picture of ERV research progress and has highlighted the contribution of different stakeholders.
