01Narrative

Darwinia pinifolia is a plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae, and is endemic to Western Australia. The shrub has a low spreading to prostrate habit and typically grows to height of 0.1 to. It blooms between September and February producing red to purple flowers. Often found in seasonally wet places and areas along the coast of the southern Wheatbelt and Swan Coastal Plain it grows in sandy soils.

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 Darwinia pinifolia has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB

The complete instruction manual Darwinia pinifolia 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.
