Information on the content of the resource
Author summary: The baseline for the genetic diversity of Peruvian papaya, published in 2023, consolidates five years of studies conducted in six priority regions using ecological modeling. The report documents the presence of Carica papaya and its wild relatives, describing ecosystems, traditional agricultural practices, socioeconomic and cultural aspects, floral biology, gene flow, and the diversity of associated microorganisms. This systematization constitutes a key technical input for decision-making on biosafety in accordance with the Cartagena Protocol.
