Abstract

Abstract – The loss of characteristics of agronomic importance for sour passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims.), for being self-incompatible allogamous, can occur in few years if the selection method of the fruits to obtain seeds is not performed in the correct way. This study shows selection methodologies for the conservation of the local genotypes, aiming at maintaining and increasing the allele frequency of the characteristics of economic interest of the cultivars, and the production of high-quality sour passion fruit in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil.
