Propagation and phenology of Corema album (L.) D.Don

The camarinha (Corema album (L.) D.Don 1830) is a dioecious shrub endemic to dune systems on the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula, belonging to the Ericacea family. This shrub produces a white drupe that has a citrus flavor and contains a high amount of antioxidants. This work analyzed two areas, propagation and phenology, because these are areas that not only come together, but also provide crucial information for making decisions in terms of production, as well as helping to analyze the next steps to be taken in the area of research. Vegetative propagation trials and phenological characterization were carried out, proposing a BBCH scale for this species. Among other conclusions, it was concluded that the endemic Corema album (never commercially exploited) is a very promising species of small fruit, given its unique characteristics of color, taste and benefits for human health.
