Espécies florestais com potencial econômico, como é o caso da aroeira (Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi.), requerem a seleção de indivíduos com características superiores para uso em projetos de restauração florestal e para o estabelecimento de plantios comerciais. Estas plantações podem contribuir para a sustentabilidade de populações naturais de espécies nos fragmentos florestais remanescentes, em áreas de pres...
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior; The aroeira (Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi.) is a species of agro-industrial value, hue the potential proprieties of its essential oils for use in cosmetics, phytotherapics and in food industry. Facing conditions of devastation which are the natural Forest in Brazil, multidisciplinary studies of native species of economic value are important to estab...
The proposal of this study was to estimate the genetic divergence among Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis progenies through quantitative traits. Trail was established in lattice design 10 x 10, triple, with 100 treatments (96 progenies from clonal seed orchard of P. caribaea var. hondurensis and four controls). The genetic divergence was estimated using the generalized Mahalanobis distance (D2) and Torcher’s opti...
The selection of genetically superior materials of different forest species with economic potential involves studies of germplasm characterization. Facing the exploitation of aroeira (Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi.) in areas of natural occurrence the genetic and chemical characterization of individuals is extremely important to suit the selection. The work was carried out to identify genetic and chemical diffe...
