Floral expression and pollen germination ability in productive mountain papaya (Vasconcellea pubescens A.DC.) orchards [PDF]
Mountain papaya (Vasconcellea pubescens A.DC.) is described as trioecious in the centers of origin of Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru. However, under cultivation conditions in La Serena (30° S, 70° W), Chile, it is found to be dioecious and monoecious. The objective was to learn about the variations in floral expression of mountain papaya.

Mountain Papaya Seeds Causing Fecal Impaction in Children
