ResumoNo presente trabalho foi estudada a morfologia dos frutos, sementes e plântulas de cinco espécies de Clusiaceae presentes em vegetação de restinga do estado do Rio de Janeiro. Os frutos das espécies estudadas apresentam características ligadas à zoocoria (Clusia fluminensis, C. lanceolata, C. criuva e Garcinia brasiliensis) e à anemocoria (Kielmeyera membranacea). As sementes recém-coletadas apresentam altas taxas de germinação: C. fluminensis (100%), C. lanceolata (100%), C. criuva (99,2%), G. brasiliensis (90,45%) e K. membranacea (91%). A germinação fanerocotiledonar foi registrada em C. fluminensis, C. lanceolata, C. criuva e K. membranacea e criptocotiledonar em G. brasiliensis. Plântulas de espécies de Clusia são frequentemente encontradas no habitat natural, especialmente associadas a espécies de Bromeliaceae, que funcionam como plantas-berçário. Palavras-chave: Clusia, Garcinia, Kielmeyera, plantas-berçário, restinga. AbstractIn this work we studied the morphology of fruits, seeds and seedlings of five species of Clusiaceae present in vegetation of sandy coastal plains (restinga) from the State of Rio de Janeiro. The fruits of the studied species have characteristics of zoochoric (Clusia fluminensis, C. lanceolata, C. criuva and Garcinia brasiliensis) and anemocoric dispersion (Kielmeyera membranacea). The newly collected seeds have high germination rates: C. fluminensis (100%), C. lanceolata (100%), C. criuva (99.2%), G. brasiliensis (90.45%) and K. membranacea (91%). Germination is phanerocotyledonar in C. fluminensis, C. lanceolata, C. criuva and K. membranacea and cryptocotyledonar in G. brasiliensis. Seedlings of Clusia species are frequently found in the natural habitat especially associated with species of Bromeliaceae, that act as nursery plants.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
