Polinização e biologia floral de Clusia arrudae Planchon & Triana (Clusiaceae) na Serra da Calçada, município de Brumadinho, MG

Abstract: -(Pollination and floral biology of Clusia arrudae Planchon & Triana (Clusiaceae) in Serra da Calçada, Brumadinho, MG). The floral biology and pollination of Clusia arrudae was studied at "Serra da Calçada". C. arrudae does not present apomixis even when resin is deposited on the stigma. Fruits developed from flowers manually pollinated produced more seeds (6.3 per locule in average) than fruits developed from flowers naturally pollinated (4.3 seeds per locule). Blooming of C. arrudae peaks between December an… Show more

“…Fruits were not observed after the flowering period of July 2001 to June 2002, as almost exclusively masculine flowers were produced during that time. Carmo and Franceschinelli (2002) observed that another species of Clusia from an area of "campo rupestre" vegetation also demonstrated greater flower production during the rainy season, with male flowers predominating during drier periods. This low production of masculine flowers can be viewed as offering rewards to pollinators in stressful periods without risking the initiation of fruiting during an unfavorable season.…”

“…The studies examining aspects of pollination and floral biology have been undertaken in areas of "campo rupestre" usually focused a low number of species (Sazima 1978a,b, Borba & Semir 2001, Madeira & Fernandes 1999, Carmo & Franceschinelli 2002. Only a sigle study considered more complex systems, sampling all mellitophilous plants and the Apoidea bees in a 1 ha area of "campo rupestre" (Faria & Camargo 1996).…”

“…De acordo com Carmo et al (2002), essa pode ser uma estratégia para aumentar as chances dos grãos chegarem aos estigmas, mesmo se houver grandes perdas, já que o pólen é utilizado tanto pela planta, na polinização e fecundação, quanto pelo polinizador como alimento para as larvas (Buchmann 1983;Nadia et al 2005). Henriques (1999) afirma que espécies que fornecem pólen como recompensa floral também apresentam alta viabilidade polínica, para compensar a oferta aos visitantes, corroborando com os nossos resultados.…”

“…O presente estudo foi realizado em uma área antropizada, com sua composição florística profundamente descaracterizada. A alteração antrópica afeta diretamente as populações animais e vegetais, contribuindo para a perda da diversidade local e o declínio de polinizadores (Carmo & Franceschinelli 2002, Laroca & Orth 2002, Lenzi et al 2003. Assim, a importância relativa dos visitantes florais e polinizadores de Momordica charantia pode ser diferente em áreas melhor conservadas.…”

“…A similaridade entre flores de uma mesma espécie deve induzir indistintamente à visitação de potenciais polinizadores, mesmo entre flores unissexuais (Knudsen et al 1999), embora esse fato nem sempre resulte na oferta de recursos tróficos (pólen e néctar) por ambas (Rust et al 2003), podendo tratar-se de engodo (Baker 1976, Piratelli et al 1998, Carmo & Franceschinelli 2002.…”
