01Narrative

Androcalva luteiflora (common name - yellow flowered Rulingia) is a shrub in the family Malvaceae. It is native to Western Australia and the Northern Territory. The species was first described in 1904 as Rulingia luteiflora by Ernst Pritzel, but was assigned to the new genus, Androcalva by Carolyn Wilkins and Barbara Ann Whitlock in 2011.

05DNA & barcodingmolecular

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Androcalva luteiflora has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB

The complete instruction manual Androcalva luteiflora carries — its genome. We read it from three angles — how big it is, how the DNA is packed into chromosomes, and how completely it has been sequenced — and explain how to read each value as you go.

Chromosomes & ploidyhow the DNA is packaged

2n is the full chromosome count in a normal body cell; n is a gamete (egg or sperm), which carries half. Ploidy is how many complete chromosome sets each cell holds — 2× (diploid) is typical for animals, while higher levels (polyploidy) are common in plants.
