Origin and Dispersal of Domesticated Peach Palm [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017
Peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) is a Neotropical palm domesticated by Native Americans. Its domestication resulted in a set of landraces (var. gasipaes), some with very starchy fruit used for fermentation, others with an equilibrium of starch and oil used as snacks. Which of the three wild types (var.

REPRODUCTIVE PHENOLOGY OF PEACH PALMS (Bactris gasipaes KUNTH, ARECACEAE) GROWING IN THE STATE OF SÃO PAULO

Revista do Instituto Florestal, 2021
Peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) was commercially introduced in São Paulo in the 1980s, as an alternative for heart-of-palm production, being currently the main species cultivated for this purpose.

Peach palm core collection in Brazilian Amazonia [PDF]

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2015
The Peach palm Active Germplasm Bank has abundant genetic diversity in its holdings. Because it is a live collection, maintenance, characterization and evaluation are expensive, restricting its use. One way to promote more efficient use is to create a Core Collection, a set of accessions with at least 70% of the genetic diversity of the full collection

Silage or fresh by-product of peach palm as roughage in the feeding of lambs [PDF]

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2015
The objective of this study was to evaluate intake and apparent digestibility of agro-industrial by-product of peach palm in diets for lambs. Twenty castrated, crossbred Santa Ines lambs, with average age of 150 days and body weight of 22.4 ± 3.4 kg, were distributed in a completely randomized design with four experimental diets composed of the ...

Domestication of Peach Palm in Southwestern Amazonia

Tipití: Journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Lowland South America, 2013
The peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) is the only Neotropical palm domesticated by Native Americans. Its place of origin as a crop (B. gasipaes var. gasipaes) has been debated for more than a century, with three hypotheses currently in discussion: southwestern Amazonia; northwestern South America; or multiple origins in the distribution of the wild ...
