    As a whole, the viral family geminiviridae is about 30 nm (3.0 × 10 −5 mm) in length. However, the two capsids making up the virus are fused; divided, the capsids would be 15 nm (1.5 × 10 −5 mm) in length. Other environmentally characterized ssDNA viruses such as CRESS DNA viruses, among others, can have genomes that are considerably less ...
