01Narrative

Crassula peduncularis, commonly known as purple stonecrop, is a herb in the family Crassulaceae. The annual herb has an decumbent habit and typically grows to a height of 1 to and around 15 cm wide. It blooms between September and October producing green-yellow-brown-red flowers. It is found in marshy areas and around ephemeral pools on granite outcrops in the Great Southern, Wheatbelt, South West, Peel and Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia. It is also indigenous to New Zealand.

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 Crassula peduncularis has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB

The complete instruction manual Crassula peduncularis 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 DNA1 detections

Where the DNA of Crassula peduncularis 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 strong is each trace?

DNA read depthRead counts were not reported for this species — the map shows presence only, not how strong each trace was.

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.
