Abstract
Hexachlamys edulis (Berg) Kausel & Legrand, “ubajay” is a native fruit species from South America belonging to the Myrtaceae family. Undoubtedly, it is a prominent species that provides potentially nutraceutical fruits, leaves with secondary metabolites of interest, and other organs with great benefits for human health and new alternatives for production systems. The aim of this work is to carry out a bibliographic review of all the scientific material published on this species to date. Research of this species could reveal and register its ethnobotanical potential.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Horticultural Science aims to provide a forum for original investigations in horticulture, viticulture and oliviculture. The journal publishes fully refereed papers which cover applied and theoretical approaches to the most recent studies of all areas of horticulture - fruit growing, vegetable growing, viticulture, floriculture, medicinal plants, ornamental gardening, garden and landscape architecture, in temperate, subtropical and tropical regions. Papers on horticultural aspects of agronomic, breeding, biotechnology, entomology, irrigation and plant stress physiology, plant nutrition, plant protection, plant pathology, and pre and post harvest physiology, are also welcomed. The journal scope is the promotion of a sustainable increase of the quantity and quality of horticultural products and the transfer of the new knowledge in the field. Papers should report original research, should be methodologically sound and of relevance to the international scientific community. AHS publishes three types of manuscripts: Full-length - short note - review papers. Papers are published in English.
