Data of SSRs primers for high-throughput genotyping-by-sequencing (SSR-Seq) based on the partial genome assembly of Eugenia klotzschiana (Myrtaceae)

Resumo

The neotropical fruit plant Eugenia klotzschiana Berg. is en- demic from South America and occurs in the Brazilian sa- vannah areas, a biome threatened by intensive agriculture. This species is a plant listed on the Brazilian list of Plants for the Future. The E. klotzschiana fruits have great nu- tritional value and antioxidant activity and are consumed in natura or processed into juice or jelly. However, their harvest is predominantly in native areas and needs fur- ther studies for large-scale commercialization. Nuclear ge- nomic data and population genetic tools are still quite scarce for the species. Here, we provide data on the first partially assembled genome of E. klotzschiana (211 Mbp, ∼75.16% genome coverage, N50 = 3,407, and 46.8% BUSCO completeness), the raw Illumina sequencing reads, and two sets of primers for microsatellite (SSRs) high-throughput genotyping-by-sequencing (SSR-Seq) identified in the nuclear genome. These genomic resources are fundamental for this species conservation strategies and the development of a fu- ture breeding program.
