Abstract:

The fruit-type papaya cultivar‘Guireyou 1’is an excellent new cultivar derived from a natural mutation of the dual-purpose(fruit and vegetable)papaya cultivar‘Yiyuan 8’. The plant grows vigorously with a single,erect,unbranched stem reaching 170.4 cm in height and 9.6 cm in basal diameter. Fruit are uniformly pear-shaped,averaging 0.95 kg in weight,19.0 cm in length and 10.5 cm in width;the flesh is 3.2 cm thick,bright orange-red,contains 12.0% total soluble solids and offers a sweet,aromatic flavour. Regional trials yielded an average 62.97 t · hm-2. Combining strong drought and heat tolerance,‘Guireyou 1’is recommended for commercial cultivation in tropical and subtropical regions such as Guangxi,Guangdong,Fujian and Hainan.
