Anijsblad is een kruidachtige, soms houtachtige plant die tot 1,5 of 3 meter hoog kan worden. Het verspreidingsgebied is in tropisch Centraal- en Zuid-Amerika: Brazilië, Bolivia, Peru, noordelijk tot Mexico, het Caribische gebied, Florida en de Guiana's Het is een blijvende plant die in het wild verzameld wordt voor een aantal doeleinden. Kinderen vinden de zoete rijpe vruchten een lekkernij, het jonge blad wordt met rijst als groente gegeten of om ander voedsel gebonden. In de volksgeneeskunst wordt de plant voor velerlei doeleinden gebruikt. De wortels zijn vochtafdrijvend en thee van de bladeren wordt gebruikt tegen koortsen. De plant bevat 4-Nerolidylcatechol, een stof die belangrijke eigenschappen heeft: ontstekingsremmend, anti-oxidant en antimalaria. Anijsblad wordt ook in bevroren toestand in Nederland ingevoerd voor gebruik onder de Surinaamse gemeenschap in m.n. Amsterdam Een farmaceutische studie van de antimalariawerking van de stof, verkregen uit gekweekte anijsbladwortels, liet inderdaad in vitro positieve resultaten zien, maar in vivo waren er stabiliteitsproblemen. Dat gold ook na invriezen.

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 Piper peltatum 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 Piper peltatum 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.

Cultivated / Captivenot free-living
A living individual in a botanical garden, zoo or nursery — cultivated or kept, not free-living.
Where the DNA of Piper peltatum 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.
