Abstract
The experiment was carried out to study the effect of different varieties and age of fruits on papain production in papaya at Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, JAU, Junagadh, during 2003-2006. A total of 12 treatment combinations comprising 4 varieties and 3 ages of fruits were tried.
Among the varieties, CO-6 was found better for fresh weight as well as dry weight of latex, whereas, variety Madhubindu proved better for fresh and dry papain yield as well as maximum number of fruits per plant and fruit yield.
In the case of age of fruits, highest fresh and dry weight of latex as well as fresh and dry yield of papain was registered in 80 days older fruits, however, it was found at par with 70 days age of fruit.
The result was found non significant for number of fruits per plant and fruit yield for the age of fruit.
The interaction effect was also found non significant for all parameters.
