Abstract: Myrciaria dubia seeds have a short life span and few informations are available about the factors that determine their storability. The main aim of this research work was to check the effects of three temperatures (10 °C, 20 °C and 30 °C) and eight seed moisture contents (48%, 43%, 40%, 34%, 30%, 24%, 18% and 14%) on seed storability, during a time period of 280 days. Periodic evaluations of seed moisture content, germination, vigor and healthness were carried out throughout the experimental time. The best seed storability conditions were observed at 10 °C and 43% of seed moisture content.
