01Narrative
La Patience à feuilles obtuses, également appelée Patience sauvage ou Rumex à feuilles obtuses, est une plante adventice du genre Oseille et de la famille des Polygonacées. Originaire d'Europe, on la trouve maintenant dans de nombreuses autres régions à travers le monde. Sa présence en grande quantité indique soit un sol argileux trop tassé, victime d'un engorgement en matière organique et parfois en eau, soit dans les cultures un semis en mauvaises conditions avec dispersion des semences.

05DNA & barcoding63 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 Rumex obtusifolius has left across the world's sequence archives.

06Genome at a glanceCCDB · GoaT · TreeOfSex
The complete instruction manual Rumex obtusifolius 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.
Genome sizehow big the whole instruction manual is
Genome size1 364 310 000 bp
Measured in base pairs (bp) — the individual letters of DNA (human ≈ 3.2 Gb, a bacterium a few million). The chart places this genome on a logarithmic scale — each step to the right is ten times bigger — among reference organisms. Across species a bigger genome loosely tracks with larger cells, slower growth and lower-energy lifestyles (powered flight favours small genomes) — yet it does not imply more genes or a more advanced organism (the long-standing C-value paradox).

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.

A living individual in a botanical garden, zoo or nursery — cultivated or kept, not free-living.
09Environmental DNA37 detections
Where the DNA of Rumex obtusifolius 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 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.
