Emaravirus Emaravirus Emaravirus is a genus of plant viruses. The genus has more than six species, including: "European mountain ash ringspot-associated virus" (type species), "Fig mosaic virus", "Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus", "Raspberry leaf blotch virus", "Rose rosette virus" and Maize red stripe virus. "European mountain ash ringspot-associated virus" is associated with a leaf mottling and ringspot disease of European mountain ash "Sorbus aucuparia". It can be transmitted by grafting and possibly mites. The virion particle is between 80-100 nm and consists of an enveloped ribonucleocapsid that exhibits helical symmetry. The genomes are segmented, consisting of four strands of negative-sense single-stranded RNA.
North Fork Mountain pine barren in the Central Appalachians. Other rocky summits, including the summit of Pike Knob, are blanketed by red pine ("Pinus resinosa") forests, here at their southernmost natural occurrences. The Monongahela National Forest has designated of old growth red pine forest on the mountain as the North Fork Mountain Red Pine Botanical Area. Another unusual vegetation type on North Fork Mountain is an elfin forest dominated by yellow birch ("Betula alleghaniensis"), mountain ash ("Sorbus americana"), and mountain holly. The oak-and-pine vegetation of North Fork Mountain contrasts strongly with the more diverse vegetation of the nearby mountains just west of the
