Euterpe edulis Mart. (Arecaceae) fruits multiple uses: The conservation of germinative power as a key aspect for its management

Introduction and objectives: Euterpe edulis is an endemic palm tree of the Atlantic Forest whose seeds germinative power decreases when dehydrated because they are recalcitrant. In the past, the plants were cut -which implied death- to harvest the foliar sprout for food purposes, nowadays, fruits ar...

description Introduction and objectives: Euterpe edulis is an endemic palm tree of the Atlantic Forest whose seeds germinative power decreases when dehydrated because they are recalcitrant. In the past, the plants were cut -which implied death- to harvest the foliar sprout for food purposes, nowadays, fruits are marketed as food and seeds for the ornamental market. To evaluate whether this double use of fruits is possible with local management practices, tests were carried out on the germination power and the survival of seedlings.  M&M: We evaluated germination percentage, seed germination speed index, and seedling survival percentage in fruits either stored with pulp or pulped. In addition, the relative increase in the number of pulped fruits was valued by 1 kg, to estimate the commercial value of this new presentation.  Results: No significant differences were found in the germination power and survival of seedlings from fruits stored whole or pulped. However, the seeds of pulped stored fruits germinated faster. An increase of 33% of pulped fruits in 1 kg was estimated.  Conclusions: The storage of whole or pulped fruits does not affect germination of E. edulis seeds, nor the survival of the seedlings, so double use of the fruits is possible. It is recommended to increase the value by 50% per kg of pulped fruits, concerning the commercial value of the whole fruits.

Introducción y objetivos: Euterpe edulis es una palmera endémica del Bosque Atlántico cuyo poder germinativo de las semillas disminuye ante la deshidratación por ser recalcitrantes. En el pasado, los ejemplares se cortaban -lo que implicaba la muerte- para cosechar el brote foliar con destino alimenticio, en el presente, se comercializan la pulpa de los frutos como alimento y las semillas para el mercado ornamental. Para evaluar si este doble aprovechamiento de los frutos es posible con las prácticas locales de manejo, se realizaron ensayos sobre el poder germinativo y la supervivencia de plantines.   M&M: En frutos almacenados con pulpa y despulpados, se comparó el porcentaje de germinación, el índice de velocidad de germinación en semillas y el porcentaje de supervivencia de plántulas. Además, se calculó el aumento relativo del número de frutos despulpados en 1 kg, para estimar el valor comercial de esta nueva presentación. Resultados: No se hallaron diferencias significativas en el poder germinativo y supervivencia de plántulas provenientes de frutos almacenados enteros o despulpados. Sin embargo, las semillas de frutos almacenados despulpados germinaron con mayor velocidad. Se estimó un aumento de un 33% de frutos despulpados en 1 kg.  Conclusiones: El almacenamiento de los frutos enteros o despulpados no afecta a la germinación de las semillas de E. edulis, ni la sobrevida de las plántulas, por lo que es posible el doble aprovechamiento de los frutos. Se recomienda incrementar en un 50% el valor del kg de frutos despulpados, respecto al valor comercial de los frutos enteros.
