Abstract

Vivipary is of unusual occurrence in papaya. In viviparic fruits, seeds germinate in side while still they remain attached with fruits. Such fruits are insipid in taste. If cut exposed, the germinated seeds inside the fruit look very clearly. High humidity and warm weathers appear associated with the viviparic fruits in papaya.
