RESUMO:

Cambará (Vochysia divergens Pohl) is a tree species belonging to the Vochysiaceae family. It has economic 

importance, due to the use of its wood, and medicinal, due to its phytotherapic properties, being the bark, 

leaves, fruits and sap used to treat some diseases. The inappropriate consumption of plants with medicinal

 properties can have several consequences, therefore, research is needed to bring information about the toxicity 

of these plants. However, there is little research on the toxicity and genetic diversity of Cambará and to assist in 

the conservation and management of the species, studies on genetic diversity are important, which are carried 

out through molecular markers that help to determine the levels of genetic diversity, enabling strategies aimed at 

their conservation. In this context, the work aims to verify the diversity and genetic structure of populations of 

Vochysia divergens in the State of Mato Grosso through molecular microsatellite markers, as well as to evaluate 

the cytotoxic and genotoxic potential of the species. Five populations of V. divergens with natural occurrence in

 the state of Mato Grosso will be sampled, from which plant material (leaves/bark) will be collected. 

The cytogenotoxicity analyzes will be carried out using the Allium cepa test, using leaves and bark for the 

preparation of infused and decocted aqueous extracts. For the analysis of diversity and genetic structure, 

DNA will be extracted using the CTAB protocol with modifications for the species. Amplifications will be 

performed by means of PCR with eight SSR markers with proven transferability to the species. This study will

 provide information for use in future conservation, management and genetic improvement programs.
