Biometric analysis of cajazeira fruits (Spondias mombin L.) in the northeastern Brazil

The cajazeira (Spondias mombin L.) is a fruit tree belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. Yellow mombins are very common in caatinga ecoregion of northeastern Brazil. This study assessed biometry fruits. fruits were collected 2019 within an area ​​ native vegetation campus Federal Rural University Semi-arid Region (UFERSA), Mossoró-RN. They then taken Plant Science Laboratory measure following characteristics: length, width, length/width ratio, thickness, and weight. variables weight seeds had low range variation values ​​for relative variation, therefore high coefficients Pearson correlation. data thickness showed moderate degree symmetry symmetrical mesocurtic distribution, while ratio almost distributions. length width significant positive linear correlations. biometric cajafruits fitted approximate normal distribution probability.
