Structural and evolutive features of the Plinia phitrantha and P. cauliflora plastid genomes and evolutionary relationships within tribe Myrteae (Myrtaceae)
Abstract:Plinia phitrantha and P. cauliflora are Myrtaceae species with recognized horticultural and pharmacological potential. Nevertheless, studies on molecular genetics and the evolution of these species are absent in the literature. In this study, we report the complete plastid genome sequence of these species and an analysis of structural and evolutive features of the plastid genome within the tribe Myrteae. The two plastid genomes present the conserved quadripartite structure and are similar to already reported p… Show more
