Right at It's Roots.
Many, if not most biologists do not consider viruses living. So, they are not on any phylogenetic tree that I know of. They may have a phylogeny that I am unaware of, though.
The type of cells that viruses live in are host cells. Viruses need host cells in order to reproduce or multiply.
Viruses do not fit into any of the traditional kingdoms of living organisms. They lack the characteristics of life such as the ability to reproduce or metabolize on their own, and are considered as non-living entities that require a host cell to replicate.
The only life function that a virus shares with a cell is reproduction. Both cells and viruses reproduce in some way.
One exception to the characteristic of life is viruses. Viruses are considered non-living because they cannot carry out the basic functions of life on their own and require a host cell to replicate.
Viruses don't fit into the kingdoms of life because they aren't considered to be living things, even though they have DNA. Weird right?

None. Viruses are acellular. Many biologists do not consider viruses to be living things in part because they are acellular. Look at any phylogeny (tree of life). Viruses are not on them.

Since viruses are not alive they can not have life processes.
There are no known viruses that can be hosted by a tree. There are however parisites and Fungi that can be harmfull to any plant, shrub, or tree. The only example I know of where a tree might harbor a viruse is if a bark beetle was to by chance have the flu.
The number of viruses that can fit in a period (.) varies depending on the type of virus, but many common viruses range from about 20 to 300 nanometers in diameter. A period is approximately 0.5 millimeters (500 micrometers) in size, which means you could fit thousands to millions of viruses within that space, depending on their size. For example, if we consider a virus with a diameter of 100 nanometers, roughly 5,000 of them could fit in a period.
Viruses do not fit into any of the traditional kingdoms of living organisms. They lack the characteristics of life such as the ability to reproduce or metabolize on their own, and are considered as non-living entities that require a host cell to replicate.
Monkeys live in colonies of about 10 to 20. Even a about 50 monkeys can fit in a tree. It depends on the size of the tree.
Viruses are not classified within any of the three domains of life, which are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. They do not fit into the domains of Animalia or Protista, as they are acellular entities that require a host cell to replicate and do not possess cellular structures. Instead, viruses are considered separate biological entities.
It is not called The tree of Life.
Not at all.The tree of life is totally different.
