Conteúdo:	Brazil has no Date palm production and all its consumption is imported. Date palm was introduced in Brazil several years ago, but very little systematic studies were performed. However, recent introductions through the National Research Center for Genetic Resources and Biotechnology (CENARGEN) and the Agricultural Research Center for the Semi-Arid Tropics (CP ATSA), both from the Brazilian Enterprise for Agricultural Research (EMBRAP A) were studied at the Experiment Station of Bededouro from CPATSA, 90S and 400W in a semi-arid environrnent, under irrigation. A collection of sixteen cultivars, from Africa and United States, were established. A sample of nine varieties from Africa were studied in detail. Production, fruit and seed characteristics were determined. Zahdi gave the highest yield per plant (40 kg), and Bahree the lowest (less than 10 kg). Harvest and post harvest studies were performed as well as in vitro propagation. Shoot tip growth and lateral bud have been observed. Callus formation has been obtained when zip was added.
