| dc.description | Guarana (Paullinia cupana) is a woody vine or sprawling shrub native the central Amazon Basin. The seeds are commercially produced on some 6.000 ha in the state of Amazonas near Manaus. The principal article of commerce is an amber-colored. carbonated soft drink. It is also widely used as a high caffeine stimulant and in local medicines. The plant is monoecious and is damaged by a number of diseases, the most severe being anthracnose. Prospects are excellent for greatly expanded international markets. | |
