has become an important agricultural export for developing
countries where export revenues of the fruit provide a livelihood
for thousands of people, especially in Asia and Latin America. This

implications for both breeding and cultivation. It looks at how
analysis of the papaya genome promises new, faster breeding
techniques to improved cultivars and how these and other advances
are helping to tackle disease like papaya ring spot viruses and
major pests which cause significant losses. Key features include:

contributions from international experts, the book presents the
