Seeds and leaves of 53 individuals were collected and morphologically grouped into <em>Carapa guianensis</em> and <em>Carapa vasquezii</em>. The oils extracted from seeds were esterified, and their lipidomic profiles were analyzed.

The lipidomic profile allowed the identification of 40 substances present in the <em>C. guianensis</em> and <em>C. vasquezii</em> oils, with 20 shared among the species independent of the region of collection, two occurring only in the oil of <em>C. guianensis</em> from Acre, four in samples of <em>C. guianensis</em> and <em>C. vasquezii</em> from Amazonas, and 16 substances occurring only in samples of <em>C. vasquezii</em> oil. <em>C. vasquezii</em> presented a greater diversity of terpenoids. The genome regions made it possible to obtain 16 distinct haplotypes for the two species (<em>C. guianensis</em> and <em>C. vasquezii</em>), 999 conserved sites, and 32 polymorphic sites. The species presented significant molecular divergence (F_ST = 0.87), and the <em>rbcL</em> region was considered promising for barcode studies at levels ranging from 0.1 to 0.2% of genetic distance.

A bibliometric review was conducted covering all published research on the topic in the Scopus database until 2022.

Saponins are the most extensively studied compounds produced by both species, exhibiting various types with different constituents and applications. The bark of <em>Q. saponaria</em> (92%) and the leaves of <em>Q. lancifolia</em> (84%) have been studied the most. The field of health sciences comprises the largest number of publications on both species, which have applications as vaccine adjuvants.

The experiment was conducted via a completely randomized block design arranged in a drawer with two factors, variety and fertilization. For this study, two cultivars, cvs. Charlotte and Camarosa were used. Nine treatments (including the control) resulting from the use of coffee pulp, poultry manure fertilizers, Bioval biostimulant, or chemical NPK fertilizer alone or in combination were used. The strawberry growth and yield parameters were collected. Fruits were analyzed to determine their protein, P, K, Na, Ca, and Mg contents; pH; and ash concentrations. The results demonstrated that fruit growth, yield, and mineral composition were influenced by fertilizer and variety. No differences in growth parameters were detected among the varieties. However, these factors influence fruit quality. Among the treatments, the combination of coffee pulp, chemical fertilizer, and Bioval (T8) yielded the most favorable results for all growth and yield variables. Compared with the Charlotte variety, the Camarosa variety presented higher levels of P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na. A positive correlation was observed between the levels of the nutrients K–Na, K–P, and P–Na and between pH and Mg.
