The experimental area was installed in the municipality of Tomé Açu, Northeast of the state of Para. We employed 25 full-sib progeny of cupuassu, who had vegetative growth (height and diameter of the plant), monitored for three years. Because of the nature of longitudinal observations it was assessed primarily through Mauchly sphericity test, which type of statistical analysis should be applied. For the variable diameter, sphericity condition was not violated, therefore, proceeded to review the design scheme of split plot. For the height variable, the test was significant, indicating necessarily evaluate the best structure to explain the correlation of errors, being chosen the covariance structure Heterogeneous Composed Symmetry. Differences were found between the progenies only in the third year of evaluation, and the variable diameter of the plant allowed better discriminate the progenies.Acesso AbertoGenética vegetalCupuaçuTheobroma grandiflorumTomé-Açu - PAPará - EstadoArtigo de Periódico
