description Investigating the functional traits of plant communities is extremely important for conserving habitats and plant species. This study aimed to evaluate the tree architecture and leaf morphometry of Qualea grandiflora (Vochysiaceae) in a fragment of semideciduous dry forest and pasture in the Boa Esperança settlement, municipality of Piracanjuba, State of Goiás, Brazil. Environmental, tree architecture, and foliar morphometry data were collected for seven trees in the semideciduous dry forest and five in the pasture area. We used the Shapiro-Wilk test to assess the normality of the collected data. The student t-test was used to compare the means of the functional traits between the two environments (forest and pasture). The average value of canopy cover was 85% for the semideciduous dry forest and 0% for the pasture. The mean values for leaf length and width were lower in the pasture. There was no significant difference in the petiole length in the two evaluated environments and for none of the functional traits related to the tree architecture. However, individuals of Qualea grandiflora grow better in the seasonal semideciduous dry forest, probably as a response to less stressful environmental conditions for this species. Thus, for sustainable exploitation by the local community, it is recommended that the tree matrices be chosen within the semideciduous dry forest area.

O presente estudo objetivou avaliar a arquitetura arbórea e a morfometria foliar de Qualea grandiflora (Vochysiaceae) em um fragmento de floresta seca semidecídua e pastagem, no assentamento Boa Esperança, Piracanjuba, Goiás, Brasil. Foram coletados dados ambientais, de arquitetura arbórea e de morfometria foliar, consistindo na amostragem de sete indivíduos na floresta seca semidecídua e cinco na pastagem. Para as análises estatísticas, o teste de Shapiro-Wilk foi usado para testar a normalidade dos dados. Para a comparação das médias dos traços funcionais entre os dois ambientes utilizou-se o teste t de Student. O valor médio da cobertura de dossel foi de 85% para floresta seca semidecídua e de 0% para pastagem. Os valores médios para o comprimento e largura da folha foram menores na pastagem. Não houve diferença significativa para o comprimento do pecíolo nos dois ambientes avaliados e para nenhum dos traços funcionais relativos à arquitetura arbórea. Provavelmente, os indivíduos de Qualea grandiflora se desenvolveram melhor na floresta seca semidecídua, como resposta às condições ambientais menos estressantes para a espécie. Assim, recomenda-se, para fins de exploração sustentável pela comunidade local, que as matrizes arbóreas sejam escolhidas dentro da área de floresta seca semidecídua.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2024-09-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaenatura/article/view/7474210.5902/2179460X74742Ciência e Natura; Vol. 46 (2024): Publicação contínua; e74742Ciência e Natura; v. 46 (2024): Publicação contínua; e747422179-460X0100-8307reponame:Revista Ciência e Natura (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMenghttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaenatura/article/view/74742/64226Copyright (c) 2024 Ciência e Naturainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGuimarães, Brenda OliveiraMorais, Isa Lucia deOliveira, Ana Paula deAlmeida, Rafael Felipe de2024-11-19T11:33:44Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/74742Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaenatura/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaenatura/oaicienciaenatura@ufsm.br || centraldeperiodicos@ufsm.br2179-460X0100-8307opendoar:2024-11-19T11:33:44Revista Ciência e Natura (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
