The Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is a species of tree in the Artocarpus genus of
the mulberry family (Moraceae). It is native to parts of South and Southeast Asia, and is believed to have originated in the southwestern rain forests of India, in present-day erala, coastal arnata!a and "aharashtra. This tree is widely cultivated in tropical regions of India, #angladesh, Sri $an!a, %ietnam, Thailand, "alaysia, Indonesia and the &hilippines. 'ac!fruit is also found in (ast Africa, e.g., in )ganda, Tan*ania and "auritius, as well as throughout #ra*il and +aribbean nations such as 'amaica. The ,ac!fruit tree is well suited to tropical lowlands, and its fruit is the largest tree-borne fruit, reaching as much as -. pounds (/0 !g) in weight and up to /0 inches (1. cm) long and 2. inches (3. cm) in diameter. The Star Apple (Chrysophyllum cainito) is a tropical tree of the family Sapotaceae, native to the lowlands of +entral America and the 4est Indies. It grows rapidly and reaches 2. m in height. It has numerous common names including cainito, caimito, star apple, golden leaf tree, abiaba, pomme du lait, estrella, mil! fruit and aguay. It is also !nown by the synonym Achras cainito. In %ietnam, it is called v5 s6a (literally7 breast-mil!). The leaves are evergreen, alternate, simple oval, entire, 3893 cm long: the underside shines with a golden color when seen from a distance. The tiny flowers are purplish white and have a sweet fragrant smell. The tree is also hermaphroditic (self-fertile). It has round, purple-s!inned fruit hat is often green around the caly;, with a star pattern in the pulp. Sometimes there is a greenish-white or yellow variety of the fruit. The s!in is rich in late;, and both it and the rind are not edible. The flattened seeds are light brown and hard. It bears fruit year around after it reaches about seven years of age. The Papaya (from +arib via Spanish), papaw, or pawpaw is the fruit of the plant Carica papaya, the sole species in the genus Carica of the plant family +aricaceae. It is native to the tropics of the Americas, and was first cultivated in "e;ico
several centuries before the emergence of the "esoamerican classical civili*ations. The papaya is a large tree-li!e plant, with a single stem growing from 3 to 9. metres (90 to // ft) tall, with spirally arranged leaves confined to the top of the trun!. The lower trun! is conspicuously scarred where leaves and fruit were borne. The leaves are large, 3.8<. centimetres (2.82- in) diameter, deeply palmately lobed with < lobes. The tree is usually unbranched, unless lopped. The flowers are similar in shape to the flowers of the Plumeria, but are much smaller and wa;-li!e. They appear on the a;ils of the leaves, maturing into the large 938=3 centimetres (3.189- in) long, 9.8/. centimetres (/.1892 in) diameter fruit. The fruit is ripe when it feels soft (as soft as a ripe avocado or a bit softer) and its s!in has attained an amber to orange hue. Carica papaya was the first transgenic fruit tree to have its genome deciphered. >2? Related Study(s): +ombination of @urian &eeling (@urio !ute,unsis), Amelina $eaf (Amelina arborea) and Talisay $eaf (Terminalia cattappa) (;tract as pesticide to rice #lac! bugs (Scotinopara coartata).
