“…The Myrtaceae family has 3.800 at 5.800 species, distributed in 150 genera, occurring mainly in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, with diversity centers in Australia, Southeast Asia, and America. Their species are taxonomically complex, have many components, and scarcity of studies (Seraglio et al 2018, Rodrigues et al 2020, Souza et al 2020. This family has some fruits with economic potential but still unimpressive because they remain appreciated as wild plants or commercialized on a small scale (Seraglio et al 2018).…”

“…In this family, the genus Eugenia stands out as one of the largest one, composed of about 1000 species with distribution from Mexico to northern Argentina; in Brazil, there are more than 400 species (Marchiori & Sobral 1997, Guollo et al 2020. Those native fruits are popular and known because of the largest number of species with economic potential (Guollo et al 2020, Souza et al 2020. They are often found in domestic orchards and occupy a prominent place in natural ecosystems (Veit et al 2019, Guollo et al 2020.…”

Surinam cherry (Eugenia uniflora L.) is a fruit species with the potential for economic exploration. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic variability and cytological stability in 40 accessions of Surinam cherry in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. We used 18 molecular markers of RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) to access the genetic variability. The cytological analysis included meiotic behavior, viability, and in vitro germination of pollen and counting the anthers number. The analysis of genetic variability allowed the separation of the accessions into three groups with an average of 9.5 bands amplified by the primer; 8.39 polymorphic bands; 88.57% of polymorphism and 86% genetic similarity. In the cytological analysis, the average normal meiotic cells were 85.07%; average pollen viability was 90.47%; in vitro germination of 44.33%; and the anther/flower average of 54.53. Therefore, the accessions have high genetic similarity and cytological stability.
