Turncurtovirus
Turncurtovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Geminiviridae. Dicotyledonous plants serve as natural hosts. The type species is Turnip curly top virus.[1][2]

Structure
Viruses in Turncurtovirus are non-enveloped, with icosahedral geometries, and T=1 symmetry. Genomes are circular and non-segmented, around 3.0kb in length.[1]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic arrangement | Genomic segmentation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Turncurtovirus | Twinned Icosahedral | Incomplete T=1 | Non-enveloped | Circular | Monopartite |
Life cycle
Viral replication is nuclear. Entry into the host cell is achieved by penetration into the host cell. Replication follows the ssDNA rolling circle model. DNA-templated transcription is the method of transcription. The virus exits the host cell by nuclear pore export, and tubule-guided viral movement. Dicotyledonous plants serve as the natural host.[1]

gollark: I think you don't actually have enough data to. Unless you constantly use GPS.
gollark: You'd probably want them to only be clickable with a keyboard out though.
gollark: It's a shame it'd be so annoying to register clicks on 3D objects when you're using the keyboard. We could have virtual 3D-positioned touchscreens.
gollark: I think 3D is relatively new in mainline plethora though.
gollark: I really should have read the docs in more detail then.
