01Narrative
Calochortus nudus is a North American species of flowering plant in the lily family known by the common name naked mariposa lily.Watson, Sereno 1879. Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences 14: 263 It is native to the mountains of California and southwestern Oregon, where it grows in wet areas such as meadows and lakeside bogs.

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 Calochortus nudus has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB
The complete instruction manualCalochortus nudus 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.
