They are harvested from the wild or cultivated for local uses as a condiment (nutmeg and mace), medicine, and source of wood. In this study, we reconstructed the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of these two species from whole genome sequencing data using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The genome sizes of M. argentea and M. fatua were respectively 155,871 base pairs (bp) and 155,898 bp, including 126 genes and an overall GC content of 39.20% in both species. Our study provides useful resources for future evolutionary research and diversity analysis of Myristica species. specialized Chloroplast Myristica phylogeography phylogenetic nutmeg 076 020 8 7 751-755 2023 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010088301 10.1080/23802359.2023.2233154 [F B010088301] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010088301 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/2023-09/010088301.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2023-09-22 2026-06-12 fdi:010088301 fre
