Artemisia annua, l'Armoise annuelle ou Absinthe chinoise, est une espèce de plantes dicotylédones de la famille des Asteraceae, sous-famille des Asteroideae. Ce sont des plantes herbacées annuelles, glabres. Originaire d'Eurasie et d'Afrique du Nord, l'espèce a été introduite en Europe et en Amérique. L'Armoise annuelle contient plusieurs substances actives, notamment l'artémisinine, à des teneurs qui varient fortement selon la provenance de la plante. Utilisée en médecine traditionnelle chinoise pour lutter contre les fièvres, elle est présente dans sa pharmacopée depuis plus de 2 000 ans, généralement associée avec d'autres plantes. Depuis les années 1970 on l'étudie notamment dans le traitement du paludisme. L'Armoise annuelle est proposée sous forme de tisanes, de comprimés ou de teinture comme complément alimentaire, pour le traitement de nombreuses maladies. En août 2020, l'OMS « appelle à une extrême prudence vis-à-vis de ces informations vantant l'efficacité de tels produits » dans le traitement du paludisme dans le contexte de la pandémie de COVID-19. Un article de recherche d'octobre 2023 intitulé Propriétés antivirales, virucides et antioxydantes d'Artemisia annua contre le CoV-2 du SRAS montre qu'un composant de l'armoise annuelle inhibe la réplication virale du SRAS-CoV-2[réf. nécessaire]. On extrait également de cette plante une huile essentielle aux propriétés antiseptiques, utilisée en parfumerie et cosmétique. L'armoise annuelle est plantée aussi à Java pour ses qualités ornementales.

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 Artemisia gmelinii has left across the world's sequence archives.
At a glance
★ the standard DNA barcode for this group — the short region actually read to tell this species apart. The rest are extra genes sequenced along the way.
The complete instruction manual Artemisia gmelinii 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.

Origin
Range
Wildobservation + sensor
Human sightings and records, or camera-trap / sensor detections — someone (or a device) saw or captured the species in the wild.
Museum / Voucheredphysical evidence
Backed by a physical specimen — a herbarium sheet, sample or voucher held in a collection. “Vouchered” means supported by material evidence, not just an observation.
Cultivated / Captivenot free-living
A living individual in a botanical garden, zoo or nursery — cultivated or kept, not free-living.

Cultivated / Captivenot free-living
A living individual in a botanical garden, zoo or nursery — cultivated or kept, not free-living.
Where the DNA of Artemisia gmelinii 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.
Signal
Where its DNA was found
How strong is each trace?
Modelled climatemodelled
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.
