The savannah is the second largest Brazilian ecosystem and stands out for its great biodiversity, besides being an important agricultural frontier of the world. However, the process of agricultural development has undermined the ecosystem sustainability and contributed to the extinction of many species of animals and plants, including native fruit trees, wildlife base of support and source of food for local populations. On general, the fruits of the Brazilian savannah arouse an increasing scientific interest, due to their nutritional and functional properties, combined with the potential to add value and conserve the biodiversity of this biome (Siqueira et al., 2017).
