01Narrative

Antennaria solitaria is a North American species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae known by the common name singlehead pussytoes.Flora of North America Vol. 19, 20 and 21 Page 401 Singlehead pussytoes Antennaria solitaria Rydberg It is found in the southeastern and east-central part of the United States from Delaware and southern Pennsylvania west to southern Illinois and south as far as Georgia and Louisiana.Biota of North America Program 2014 county distribution map Antennaria solitaria sometimes grows up to 35 cm (14 inches) in height. Flower heads are borne singly rather than in arrays of several heads. Male and female flowers are on separate plants. The species tends to grow on slopes or streambanks in moist, rich forests.

05DNA & barcoding1 specimens

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 Antennaria solitaria has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB · GoaT · TreeOfSex

The complete instruction manual Antennaria solitaria 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.

09Environmental DNA65 detections

Where the DNA of Antennaria solitaria was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
