Supplemental foods (papaya, raisins) were fed with most trials.
The viability tests after equilibrium dehydration were also used for seeds of coffee, papaya and red oak.
There are also small areas of potato, papaya and squash with genes for delayed ripening and virus-resistance inserted.
In this study we investigated whether there was any interaction between drying and the environmental requirements for germination in papaya seed.
Once papaya seeds received a heat shock treatment, their progression towards visible germination was rapid.
The egg-infested papaya was then halved and the seeds and inner flesh scooped out, leaving only about 1 cm thick outer portion.
Papaya seeds appear to be specifically suited to this ecological niche in two other ways.
Papaya was selected for study because of contradictions in the literature.
