Conteúdo: | Papaya (Carica papaya L.) fruit is economically useful for its food value and for its valuble proteolytic enzymes, papain and chymopapain (Medora et al.,1979). Papaya, being essentially cross-pollinated and seed propagated, shows great variability and, therefore, vegetative propagation from selected clones is highly desirable. Rapid clonal propagation of desired genotypes is one of many applications of plant tissue culture. Successful propagation of fruit species by this method is limited. Papaya plants have been regenerated from seedling apices (Yie and Liaw, 1977) and from apical buds (Litz and Conover, 1980; Litz et al., 1983) and lateral buds (Drew, 1988; Purnima, 1988; Rajeevan and pandey, 1986) of mature trees. However, in vitro adventitious regenerationmay give a higher rate of shoot production with more potencial for mass propagation than does multiplication from axilliary buds. The present paper describes a technique for production of multiple shoots though organogenesis from petiole explants derived from aseptically grown shoots of Carica Papaya.
