Syzygium alternifolium is a species of plant in the Myrtaceae family, native to certain regions in India. It is a semi-evergreen tree that blooms during the dry season and has a mixed pollination system. The plant is self-incompatible and faces challenges in repopulating itself due to various factors such as fruit collection, short seed viability, and seedling mortality. It is an important tree for its timber, medicinal properties, and economic value. The study of its pollination biology was conducted in a biosphere reserve in India, where the plant is found. The tree flowers massively and synchronously, with a low natural fruit set. The fruits are edible and have different colors and flavors. The plant has multiple medicinal uses and is also used for making squashes and jellies. Despite its importance, the population size of S. alternifolium is declining due to human activities.
