Situação do manejo e conservação do germoplasma de maxixeiro na agricultura tradicional de Macaíba-RN. 2019. 22 f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Engenharia Agronômica) - Unidade Acadêmica Especializada em Ciências Agrárias, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Macaíba, 2019.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/40295The maxixeiro (Cumumis anguria L.) is frequently cultivated in the North and Northeast, where has larger genetic variability. Although is not more important economic among the cucurbits species, is relevant complement of family income and for the maintenance of family units in rural zones, as verified in the municipality of Macaíba-RN.

Information and data was obtained of exploratory research made the application of mixed questionnaires, with qualitative and quantitative questions. Finalized of the experiment, see was predominance of the empirical way of managing and conserving C. anguria germplasm.Cucumis anguria L. recursos genéticos vegetais. variabilidade genéticaCucumis anguria L. plant genetic resources. genetic variability.Situação do manejo e conservação do germoplasma de maxixeiro na agricultura tradicional de Macaíba-RNSituation of management and conservation of maxixeiro germoplasm in Macaíba-RN traditional agriculturebachelorThesisCiências Agrárias I
