Abstract: Gustavia augusta L., conhecida popularmente como jeniparana, é uma espécie arbórea neotropical, que ocorre nas florestas Atlântica e Amazônica. Considerando-se a abundância dessa espécie na floresta Atlântica e a fragilidade e fragmentação desse ecossistema, objetivou-se, com este trabalho, caracterizar seus frutos, sementes, germinação e plântulas, acrescentando informações para subsidiar estudos sobre sua conservação e utilização. Os frutos maduros foram coletados em fragmentos de floresta Atlântica, no muni… Show more

“…Researches conducted with fruit and seeds of species from different botanical families such as majestic heaven lotus (Gustavia augusta L., Lecythidaceae Family) by Silva et al (2014), cucumber tree (Averrhoa bilimbi L., Oxalidaceae Family) by Santos et al (2015), and Campomanesia adamantium (Myrtaceae Family) by Dresch et al (2013), indicated that longer and wider fruits presented higher values of fruit mass and seeds. Similar results were obtained in the present study, where the three rootstocks presenting higher values of fruit mass (Table 1) were also the ones presenting seeds with bigger dimension and seed fresh mass (Table 3).…”

“…Many research works conducted with fruits and seeds of tree species from different botanical families, such as cucumber tree (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) of Oxalidaceae family [33], Campomanesia adamantium of Myrtaceae family [34], and majestic heaven lotus (Gustavia augusta L.) from Lecythidaceae family [35], indicate that longer and wider fruits usually present higher values of fruit mass and seeds. These authors' results are in total agreement with the results of our study which showed that longer, wider, and heavier fruits have more seeds.…”

“…Souza et al (2008) reported 21 seed in sap fruit. Brazil nut (B. excelsa) had mean number of 15 seed in eight individuals of this species, with (Matta & Scudeller, 2012); Gustavia augusta L. (0.13 x 0.10 cm LxW) (Silva et al, 2014); and Eschweilera compressa (Vell.) Miers (6-10 seed; 2.2-3.3 × 1.6-2 cm LxW) (Ribeiro et al, 2016).…”
