Resumo: | Abstract Myrteae is the largest and most diverse tribe within Myrtaceae and represents the majority of its diversity in the Neotropics. Members of Myrteae hold ecological importance in tropical biomes for the provision of food sources for many animal species. Thus, due to its several roles, a growing interest has been addressed to this group. In this study, we report the sequencing and de novo assembly of the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of six Myrteae species: Eugenia brasiliensis, E. pyriformis, E. nitida, Myrcianthes pungens, Plinia edulis and Psidium cattleianum. We characterized genome structure, gene content, and identified SSRs to detect variation within Neotropical Myrteae. The six newly sequenced plastomes exhibit a typical quadripartite structure, gene content and organization highly conserved among Myrtaceae species. Some differences in genome length, protein-coding genes and non-coding regions were found. Besides, IR boundaries present structural changes among species. Increased sequence diversity was observed in some intergenic regions, suggesting their suitability for investigating intraand interspecific genetic diversity in populational studies. These data also contribute to the improvement of taxa sampling in further phylogenetic investigations to understand Myrtaceae evolution.
