This work aimed to study the diversity of endophytic bacteria associated to Coffea arabica L. fruit during their development. Seven monthly collections were conducted, following coffee fruit development in homogeneous stand of Catuai Vermelho coffee cultivar plantation. Each sample was processed according to protocol aiming to obtain total DNA from the endophytic bacterial community, associated to each stage of fruit development. The strategy of rDNA16S amplification through the Nested-PCR technique and DGGE discrimination were applied. The total population of endophytic bacteria and the phylos Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria (alpha, beta and gamma classes) were investigated. The analysis of each gel, representing the evolution of a population along time, was carried out using the program Bionumerics®. The existence of endophytic bacteria associated to coffee fruit since the first month of their development was confirmed, by using the universal primer for Eubacteria. Based on the similarity between the distribution pattern of the OTUs on the rays representing the two final months of fruit development, it was inferred that the populations tend to stabilize. Less similarity between the endophytic populations, present in the different phases of fruit development, was confirmed in the phylo Firmicutes, while the beta-Proteobacteria displayed greater similarity among the different phases of fruit development. Amplification of the rDNA by Nested PCR and DGGE discrimination were found to be adequate to distinguish the alteration dynamics among the phylo populations and the bacterial classes studied.
