Hancornia speciosa Gomes is a fruit and medicinal tree species native to South America, which in Brazil is considered of potential economic value and priority for research and development. We present a map of the state-of-art, including articles, patents, and molecular data of the species to identify perspectives for future research. The annual scientific production, intellectual, social, and conceptual structure were evaluated, along with the number of patent deposits, components of the plant used, countries of deposit, international classification and assignees, and the accessibility of available molecular data. Brazil has the most significant publications (306) between 1992 and 2020. Technological products (29) have been developed from different tissues of the plant. Most of the articles and patents were developed by researchers from public universities from different regions of Brazil. The molecular data are sequences of nucleotides (164) and proteins (236) of the chloroplast genome and are described to identify the species as DNA barcodes and proteins involved in photosynthesis. The compilation and report of scientific, technological, and molecular information in the present review allowed the identification of new perspectives of research to be developed based on the gaps in knowledge regarding the species and perspectives for the definition of future research.

Hancornia spiosa Gomes 是一种原产于南美洲的果树和药用树种，在巴西被认为具有潜在的经济价值并值得优先研究和开发。我们提供了最新的地图，包括该物种的文章、专利和分子数据，以确定未来研究的前景。对年度科学产出、智力、社会和概念结构以及专利保藏数量、所用植物成分、保藏国家、国际分类和受让人以及可用分子数据的可访问性进行了评估。 1992 年至 2020 年间，巴西发表了最重要的出版物（306 篇）。技术产品（29 篇）是利用植物的不同组织开发出来的。大多数文章和专利是由来自巴西不同地区的公立大学的研究人员开发的。分子数据是叶绿体基因组的核苷酸 (164) 和蛋白质 (236) 序列，用于通过 DNA 条形码和参与光合作用的蛋白质来识别物种。本综述中对科学、技术和分子信息的汇编和报告允许根据有关物种的知识差距和未来研究定义的观点确定新的研究视角。
