Citrivirus
Citrivirus is a genus of viruses in the order Tymovirales, in the family Betaflexiviridae. Plants serve as natural hosts. There is currently only one species in this genus: the type species Citrus leaf blotch virus.[1][2]

Structure
Viruses in Citrivirus are non-enveloped, with flexuous and filamentous geometries. The diameter is around 12 nm, with a length of 960 nm. Genomes are linear, around 8.7kb in length. The genome has 3 open reading frames.[1]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic arrangement | Genomic segmentation |

Life cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by penetration into the host cell. Replication follows the positive stranded RNA virus replication model. Positive stranded RNA virus transcription is the method of transcription. Plants serve as the natural host.[1]

gollark: > WinBtrfs v1.4WinBtrfs is a Windows driver for the next-generation Linux filesystem Btrfs. A reimplementation from scratch, it contains no code from the Linux kernel, and should work on any version from Windows Vista onwards. It is also included as part of the free operating system ReactOS.
gollark: Just switch to ReFS!
gollark: How strange.
gollark: Ah.
gollark: Well, they're keys near each other, so random keymashing?
