“…Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are essential nutrients during the early growth of the papaya in order to ensure an optimum growth of foliage, trunks, and roots, as well as induce higher productivity [10]. Potassium (K) is needed at the papaya fruiting stage because it is essential for improving the fruit quality (i.e., sweetness and pulp thickness) [11,12]. Hence, these agronomic aspects are contributed to ensure that breeding of papaya is successful.…”

Papaya (Carica papaya) is an economically important fruit crop that is mostly planted in tropical and subtropical regions. Major diseases of papaya, such as the papaya dieback disease (PDD), papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) disease, and papaya sticky disease (PSD), have caused large yield and economic losses in papaya-producing countries worldwide. Postharvest losses have also contributed to the decline in papaya production. Hence, there is an urgent need to secure the production of papaya for a growing world population. Integration of omics resources in crop breeding is anticipated in order to facilitate better-designed crops in the breeding programme. In papaya research, the application of omics and bioinformatics approaches are gradually increased and are underway. Hence, this review focuses on addressing omics technologies and bioinformatics that are used in papaya research. To date, four traits of the papaya have been studied using omics and bioinformatics approaches, which include its ripening process, abiotic stress, disease resistance, and fruit quality (i.e., sweetness, fruit shape, and fruit size). This review also highlights the potential of genetics and genomics data, as well as the systems biology approach that can be applied in a papaya-breeding programme in the near future.

La papaya es un cultivo de importancia económica en las zonas tropicales de México, pero el mal manejo de los fertilizantes ha elevado su costo de producción. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el requerimiento nutrimental de nitrógeno, fósforo, potasio, calcio y magnesio, en el cultivo de papaya var. ‘Mulata’. El experimento se realizó en un invernadero de la Unidad Académica de Agricultura de la Universidad Autónoma de Nayarit, con el objetivo determinar el requerimiento nutrimental en relación al nitrógeno, fósforo, potasio, calcio y magnesio, en el cultivo de papaya var. ´Mulata, para lo cual se realizaron muestreos mensuales y se determinó la producción de materia seca y contenido nutrimental. Se concluyó que el requerimiento nutrimental por tonelada de fruto, es en kg las siguientes cantidades: N 1.53, P2O5 0.27, K2O 3.18, CaO 0.61 y MgO 1.02; además de que el potasio es el nutriente más demandado.
