Papaya is the fruit of the plant Ca

Papaya is the fruit of the plant Carica papaya, in the genus Carica. It is native to the tropics of the Americas, and was cultivated in Mexico several centuries before the emergence of the Mesoameri-can classic cultures. Papaya (Carica papaya) is widely grown in the tropics and has been grown in Hawaii for over a century as well (Gonsalves 1998). It is a popular fruit. The juice has been seen to have an antiproliferative effect on liver cancer cells cultured in the laboratory, probably due to its component of lycopene (Rahmat et al. 2002).

A major production constraint for papaya world-wide is papaya ringspot virus (PRSV), a potyvirus that is rapidly transmitted by a number of aphid species in a nonpersistent manner (Gonsalves & Ishii 1980). Efforts to develop transgenic papaya to control PRSV began shortly after transgenic tobacco expressing the coat protein gene of to-bacco mosaic virus was developed and shown to be resistant to Tobacco mosaic virus. The papaya research team cloned the coat protein gene of PRSV, transformed embryogenic cultures of pa

Pepaya adalah buah dari tanaman Carica pepaya, dalam genus Carica. Ini tanaman asli daerah tropis di Amerika, dan dibudidayakan di Meksiko beberapa abad sebelum munculnya budaya klasik Mesoameri-dapat. Papaya (pepaya) yang banyak tumbuh di daerah tropis dan telah berkembang di Hawaii untuk lebih dari satu abad serta (Gonsalves 1998). Ini adalah buah yang populer. Jus telah dilihat antiproliferative mempunyai efek pada sel-sel kanker hati berbudaya dalam laboratorium, mungkin karena komponen-komponen Likopen (Rahmat et al. 2002).Kendala utama produksi untuk pepaya seluruh dunia adalah pepaya ringspot virus (PRSV), potyvirus yang cepat ditransmisikan oleh sejumlah spesies aphid secara nonpersistent (Gonsalves & Ishii 1980). Upaya untuk mengembangkan pepaya transgenik untuk mengontrol PRSV dimulai setelah transgenik tembakau mengungkapkan mantel protein gen dari virus mosaik untuk bacco dikembangkan dan terbukti resisten terhadap virus mosaik tembakau. Tim peneliti pepaya kloning gen protein mantel dari PRSV, berubah embriogenik budaya PA
