RESUMO:

With agricultural expansion in southeastern Amazonia, transitional forest areas between the Amazon and the Cerrado are becoming increasingly degraded. Forest fragmentation tends to increase their vulnerability to fire, one of the main vectors of mortality in tropical forests, and may contribute to the formation of degraded areas, savannization of areas and transformation of the Amazon biome into Cerrado. Here we seek to understand how the fruit production behavior of 81 forest species in the Amazon-Cerrado transition at Tanguro Farm in Querência-MT. We evaluated an area of 150ha divided into three plots, Control, Annual Burn (B1yr) and Annual Burn (B3yr), during a controlled fire experiment (2004- 2010) conducted by the Amazon Environmental Research Institute (IPAM) and after end of the fire experiment (2011-2018), to investigate fruit and seed production in these areas in order to understand how the forest behaves during burning, which is very common in our region. This paper gathers information regarding total production by area over the years, comparison between areas, seasonality and individual production by species. Concluding that the fire increases the mortality of individuals, therefore there is a decrease in the fruiting pattern for the burned areas. Although statistically insignificant we observed differences in areas over the years, differences between production sites such as edge and interior of the forest and changes in individual production by species.
