“…It is endemic to Brazil, found in the states of Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo (Bernacci et al 2020). It has scarce occurrence records in remnant areas of the Atlantic Forest Biome, mainly from Serra da Bocaina National Park (SP), Serra dos Órgãos National Park (RJ), Ibitipoca State Park (MG), and Macaé de Cima Municipal Ecological Reserve (RJ) (Milward-de-Azevedo 2007;Bernacci et al 2020;Moraes et al 2020). The first record of occurrence of this species in Itatiaia National Park was made in a transition area between dense montane and high montane Ombrophilous Forest with intense light at 1600 m altitude.…”

We present new records of Passifloraceae sensu stricto from Itatiaia National Park, Brazil, contributing new data on the geographic distribution of four Passiflora L. species to the flora of Brazil: P. deidamioides Harms, P. miersii Mast., P. rhamnifolia Mast., and P. setulosa Killip. The last three species are reported from Itatiaia National Park and the last species from the state of Rio de Janeiro for the first time.

“…Nevertheless, at present, we are not aware of any other locality in the region where this new species may occur. Even recent studies of Passiflora in other locations of the SM (Moraes et al 2020) and a recent taxonomic review performed in Passiflora subg. Astrophea (Mezzonato-Pires et al 2020) did not record any specimens that could be the new taxon described herein.…”

“…The majority of Passiflora are herbaceous or woody climbers, but there are also shrubs and trees among this genus (Ulmer & McDougal 2004). In addition to the ornamental potential of its exuberant flowers, the genus stands out for its medicinal and economic importance, with several species presenting phytotherapic properties or producing fruit for consumption in natura (Moraes et al 2020).…”

“…SM is an area of special biological importance with priority for conservation, and it presents a great species richness of the flora and fauna, many of which are rare, endemic, and threatened (Drummond et al 2005;Furtado & Menini Neto 2018;Gonzaga et al 2018;Santiago et al 2018;Pereira et al 2020). According to Moraes et al (2020), recent descriptions of new Passifloraceae taxa for SM reinforce the importance of this area for Passiflora studies.…”

During fieldwork in Serra Negra da Mantiqueira, Minas Gerais state, southeastern Brazil, a new taxon of Passiflora, subgenus Astrophea, was collected in cloud forest areas. Passiflora purii, the new species, is characterized by the conical trochlea and the totally vinaceous corona, and was named in honor of the Puri ethnic group that inhabited the mountain range where its population was located. Detailed data on the distribution, habitat, reproductive phenology, and conservation status of the new species, as well as a key to closely related taxa of subgenus Astrophea are provided.

Passion fruit is an essential commercial plant in the tropics and subtropics, which has lately seen a rise in demand for high-quality fruits and large-scale production. Generally, different species of passion fruit (Passiflora sp.) are propagated by sexual reproduction. However, asexual reproduction, such as stem cuttings, grafting, or tissue culture, is also available and advantageous in many instances. Recent research on passion fruit has concentrated on improving and establishing methodologies for embryogenesis, clonal proliferation via (somatic embryos), homozygote regeneration (by anther culture), germplasm preservation (via cryopreservation), and genetic transformation. These developments have resulted in potentially new directions for asexual propagation. Even though effective embryo culture and cryogenics are now available, however the limited frequency of embryogenic callus transformation to ex-vitro seedlings still restricts the substantial clonal replication of passion fruit. Here, in this review the advancement related to biotechnological approaches and the current understanding of Passiflora tissue culture. In vitro culture, organogenesis, cryopreservation, breeding, and productivity of Passiflora will significantly improve with novel propagation approaches, which could be applied to a wider range of germplasm.
