Abstract

Abstract: Yellow passion fruit has conquered a significant position in the agribusiness of tropical fruits; therefore, farmers have been interested in expanding their groves, and technical information that guarantees the high yield of the farmings is needed. Aiming to observe factors related to the propagative material targeted at quality and maximization of the genetic potential, the objective of the study consisted in assessing germination and emergence of passion fruit seeds collected in three positions in the fruits and submitted to different methods of mucilage removal (aryl). The passion fruits were split in three parts: distal, medial and proximal and the contents of each part was divided in two. The content of each part of the fruit was submitted to mechanical and by fermentation methods for removal of aryl. It is concluded that the seed position in the fruit does not interferes with the germination. The aryl removal method by mechanical extraction affects the germination and seedling emergence.
