This work, carried out at Viçosa, Minas Gerais, was a study of correlation between fruit size and number of seeds and number of septa in the Satsuma tangerine (Citrus unsiu Marc, cv. «Owari»).
The design of the experiment was randomized with six treatments and ten repetitions. The treatments were as follows: fruits with diameter between 5.1 and 5.5 cm, 5.6 and 6.0 cm, 6.1 and 6.5 cm, 6.6 and 7.0 cm, 7.1 and 7.5 cm and 7.6 and 8.0 cm. Data analyzed were the number of fruits with seeds, total number of seeds, mean number of seeds per fruit and mean number of septa in fruits with and without seeds.
The results showed significant correlation between the number of seds with the diameter of the fruit and between number of septa in the fruits with and without seeds with the diameter. Also, in fruits of larger diameter, there were a greater number with seeds, a greater number of seeds per fruit and a smaller percentage of inviable seeds.
