Species relationships in the genus Vasconcellea (Caricaceae) based on molecular and morphological evidence [PDF]

American Journal of Botany, 2005
Validity of the taxa currently recognized in the genus Vasconcellea was analyzed by investigating morphological and molecular data from 105 specimens of this genus and six specimens of the related genus Carica. Taxon identification of these specimens was compared with clustering in two phenetic dendrograms generated with 36 morphological characters and

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme papain from the latex of Carica papaya L.

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme papain (EC 3.4.22.2) is extracted from the latex of unripe Carica papaya L. by Nagase (Europe) GmbH. It is intended to be used in six food manufacturing processes. The dietary exposure to the food enzyme–total organic solids (TOS) was estimated to be up to 1.112 mg TOS/kg body weight per day. This exposure is up to one order of

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme papain, a cysteine endopeptidase complex from the latex of Carica papaya L.

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme is a cysteine endopeptidase complex, containing papain (EC 3.4.22.2), chymopapain (EC 3.4.22.6), caricain (EC 3.4.22.30) and glycyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.22.25), obtained from the latex of unripe Carica papaya L. by Enzybel International SA. It is intended to be used in nine food manufacturing processes.

Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Reversibility of sex changes in the plant kingdom: more important than we thought?

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2199-2216, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Compared to animals, plants show a wide range of reproductive strategies with different degrees of sex separation (e.g. dioecy, monoecy, hermaphroditism). While sex expression was previously thought to be genetically determined and fixed in plants, accumulating evidence suggests that sex expression can change reversibly even within one ...
