01Narrative

Aristeguietia glutinosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is found only in Ecuador, where it is commonly called matico. In Peru, that name refers to the unrelated Piper aduncum, in Chile and Argentina the name matico is used for Buddleja globosa. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland. It is threatened by habitat loss. It has antibacterial, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory properties.Mosquera, T.; Peña, S.; Álvarez, P.; Noriega, P. Changes in Skin Elasticity and Firmness Caused by Cosmetic Formulas Elaborated with Essential Oils of Aristeguietia glutinosa (matico) and Ocotea quixos (ishpingo). A Statistical Analysis.

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 Aristeguietia glutinosa has left across the world's sequence archives.

At a glance

06Genome at a glanceCCDB

The complete instruction manual Aristeguietia glutinosa 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. Click any value below to see the underlying records and sources.
