Resumo
The objective of this research was to accompany and to register the phenological behavior of the cagaiteira (Eugenia
dysenterica DC.), relating the frequency of the phenophases in four E. dysenterica populations to the climate conditions of the studied
period. Three of those populations are located at the Escola de Agronomia e Engenharia de Alimentos, Universidade Federal de Goiás
(EA/UFG), in Goiânia, Goiás State (Brazil). A fourth population comprises native E. dysenterica plants, located in the municipality of
Senador Canedo, Goiás State. Climatological data were obtained from the first class station at EA/UFG. The studied cagaiteira
populations presented the same behavior of the appraised phenophases. The cagaiteira leafing in the studied populations behaves in
a continuous way, during the whole year and at greater intensity in the period of total leaf renewal, coinciding with the increase of the
relative air humidity and temperature in the months of September and October. The cagaiteira flowering is synchronic o and abundant.
The fruiting was smaller in younger plants. The development and maturation of the fruit was fast (30 to 40 days) and coinciding with
the start of the rainy season. Older and more developed cagaiteiras (Senador Canedo) presented higher production, some reaching
over 2,000 fruits per year.
