Cabralea canjerana (canjerana) is a native tree of Meliaceae family. The high economic value this specie is by high durability this wood. The wood is used in furniture, building, fence posts, among others. In addition, the species is indicated for landscaping and reforestation in preservation areas. However, there are few studies on seeds, seedlings and growth in the field of C. canjerana, therefore this study was made to: I Identify pathogens, analyze seed treatments and substrates for seed germination; II Assess the development of the seedlings in containers of different volumes and doses of release controlled fertilizer (FLC); and III Analyze the survival and growth of seedlings under different shading levels. Seeds were collected from five trees in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The samples were processed and then were submitted to thousand seed weight, moisture content, seed health and germination. C. canjerana was tested in six doses of FLC (0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 and 12.5 g L-1) combined with two volumes of containers (110 and 180 cm³) in the nursery. The variables were height (H), stem diameter (DC), H/DC, dry mass of shoot, root and total, Dickson quality index, leaf area and root length. C. canjerana was evaluated in different shading levels (0%, 18%, 50% and 70%), checking the survival rate and measured bimonthly H, DC and H/DC in the field. Content of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, chlorophyll a/b and carotenoids were evaluated at 180 and 360 days after planting. The main fungus in seeds of C. canjerana was Penicillium sp., Fusarium sp., Cladosporium sp., Pestalotia sp. and Phomopsis sp.. The asepsis in the germination test was better with 1% sodium hypochlorite for 2 minutes, using substrates the blotting paper, vermiculite and sand. The dose of FLC was minimum of 8.6 g L-1 and maximum of 12.3 g L-1 in substrate in a container of 180 cm³. The growth of C. canjerana was not appropriated in full sun light. The best shading was 50%, suggesting that this specie is better to use in understory with silvicultural treatments for partial canopy cover in areas of enrichment and transformation.
