Evolutionary relationships between and within the highland papayas (Genus vasconcellea) and the common papaya (Carica papaya)

, 2007
Being less known than the common papaya, but offering a variety of tasty fruits and great economical potential for breeding programmes, highland papayas (Vasconcellea spp.) are generally considered as under-utilized Andean crops.

Effects of P1G10 against UVB-induced damage: Reduction of antioxidant stress, inflammation and cell proliferation

Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology
Background: P1G10 is the proteolytic fraction from Vasconcellea cundinamarcensis latex equivalent to papain from C. papaya. It acts as healing enhancer in diverse wound scenarios.

Intergeneric hybridisation between carica papaya and wild vasconcellea species and identification of a PRSV-P resistance gene

, 2007
Intergeneric hybridisations between Carica papaya and related Vasconcellea species have been conducted for 15 years, despite limitations due to postzygotic barriers. Successful crosses have been achieved between C.

Postharvest Biology and Quality Preservation of Vasconcellea pubescens: Challenges and Opportunities for Reducing Fruit Losses

Horticulturae
Vasconcellea pubescens (mountain papaya) is an underutilized Andean fruit with distinctive nutritional and functional properties, yet its rapid softening and short shelf-life result in significant postharvest losses.

Loss of adhesion impairs invasiveness and cell survival, contributing to the antimetastatic effect of cysteine proteases from Vasconcella cundinamarcensis in melanoma

Scientific Reports
Based on available evidence showing the antitumoral/antimetastatic activity of the proteolytic fraction (P1G10) from Vasconcellea cundinamarcensis, we analyze possible mechanisms involved in the antimetastasic effect of this fraction and subfractions ...

Internal control gene VpEf1α in Vasconcellea pubescens (chamburo)

, 2019
The genes known as "housekeeping" control or regulate basic cellular processes and always remain activated, regardless of experimental conditions or between cells of different tissues. Vasconcellea pubescens, a species widely distributed in South America and belongs to the family Caricaceae just like papaya.

Differential expression of microRNAs in response to Papaya ringspot virus infection in differentially responding genotypes of papaya (Carica papaya L.) and its wild relative

Frontiers in Plant Science
Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) is one of the most devastating viruses of papaya that has significantly hampered papaya production across the globe. Although PRSV resistance is known in some of its wild relatives, such as Vasconcellea cauliflora and in some
