“…Target genes related to papaya's important agronomic traits, including tolerance/ resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses and fruit quality, were explored through omics and bioinformatics [26]. The papaya genome includes NBS genes which are diseaseresistant genes with nucleotide-binding site motifs in the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) and non-TIR subclasses [27].…”

Papaya (Carica papaya L) is a versatile tropical fruit with its usage ranging from consumption, cosmetics, to pharmaceuticals. In 2020, it was the third most-produced tropical fruit crop in the world. Papaya is a trioecious herbaceous plant with distinct flower and fruit morphological appearances. The fruits from hermaphrodite papaya are favorable for both consumption and processing due to their superior quality. Papaya has a genome size of 372 Mb and chromosome of 2n =18. The male and hermaphrodite papaya have XY and XYh sex chromosomes, respectively, while the female has XX. Using omics and bioinformatics approaches, papaya cultivars with desired fruit quality can be selected and identified from germplasm for incorporation in breeding programs. Papaya production can be done either in open fields or under protected cultivation. Open field cultivation provides for large-scale production, but with the disadvantages of variability in fruit yield, quality, and limitations on growing and harvesting seasons. Under protected cultivation, papaya can be cultivated in all seasons, whilst delivering higher yields. Conversely, multidisciplinary approaches with selected papaya cultivars, good farm management, and suitable conditions provide high yields of quality fruit for both consumption and processing, whilst minimizing the adverse effects related to environmental conditions.

“…High-throughput next-generation sequencing is a revolutionary tool in transcriptomics that can overcome the limitations of array-based approaches because it can capture all sequences [ 143 , 149 ] and its popularity grew surprisingly after 2008 when more advanced Illumina technologies recorded 10 9 transcript sequences with accurate quantitation [ 150 ]. Later, PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies came to dominate plant genome studies due to their high-quality sequences, large sequence reads and lower error rates [ 151 ]. Remarkable stress-inducible transcripts were also identified in rice using RNA-seq.…”

Soil salinity is one of the most serious environmental challenges, posing a growing threat to agriculture across the world. Soil salinity has a significant impact on rice growth, development, and production. Hence, improving rice varieties’ resistance to salt stress is a viable solution for meeting global food demand. Adaptation to salt stress is a multifaceted process that involves interacting physiological traits, biochemical or metabolic pathways, and molecular mechanisms. The integration of multi-omics approaches contributes to a better understanding of molecular mechanisms as well as the improvement of salt-resistant and tolerant rice varieties. Firstly, we present a thorough review of current knowledge about salt stress effects on rice and mechanisms behind rice salt tolerance and salt stress signalling. This review focuses on the use of multi-omics approaches to improve next-generation rice breeding for salinity resistance and tolerance, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and phenomics. Integrating multi-omics data effectively is critical to gaining a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the molecular pathways, enzyme activity and interacting networks of genes controlling salinity tolerance in rice. The key data mining strategies within the artificial intelligence to analyse big and complex data sets that will allow more accurate prediction of outcomes and modernise traditional breeding programmes and also expedite precision rice breeding such as genetic engineering and genome editing.

“…According to Singh et al (2020), 80% of the world's population depends on this fruit for primary health care [7]. Likewise, many agroindustries have dedicated their efforts to improving desired agronomic characteristics such as size, sweetness and fruit shape for exportation mainly to the United States due to product demand [8]. In 2018 India (with 5.99 tonnes), Brazil (with 1.06 million tonnes), and Mexico (with 1.04 tonnes) were the main producers of papaya [9].…”

Papaya (Carica papaya) waste cause significant commercial and environmental damage, mainly due to the economic losses and foul odours they emit when decomposing. Therefore, this work provides an innovative way to generate electricity for the benefit of society and companies dedicated to the import and export of this fruit. Microbial fuel cells are a technology that allows electricity generation. These cells were produced with low-cost materials using zinc and copper electrodes; while a 150 mL polymethylmethacrylate tube was used as a substrate collection chamber (papaya waste). Maximum values of 0.736 ± 0.204 V and 5.57 ± 0.45 mA were generated, while pH values increased from 3.848 to 8.227 ± 0.35 and Brix decreased slowly from the first day. The maximum power density value was 878.38 mW/cm2 at a current density of 7.245 A/cm2 at a maximum voltage of 1072.77 mV. The bacteria were identified with an identity percentage of 99.32% for Achromobacter xylosoxidans species, 99.93% for Acinetobacter bereziniae, and 100.00% for Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. This research gives a new way for the use of papaya waste for bioelectricity generation.
