In my backyard there is one Papaya tree. Soil is fertile, enough sunlight and water are available. Even the overall ecosystem is good as a result enough number of honeybees is there to carry out pollination. Despite all such favorable conditions our Papaya tree gives good, healthy flowers continuously but no fruits. What could be the possible major reason behind this? Explain. b) Explain what happens in the following situation in one sentence: Pollen grains are transferred from anther of flower of the Papaya plant to the stigma of flower of mango plant. c) Explain the process through which many plants can be grown from one parent in disease-free conditions.

Answer:
Growing papaya from seed is the easiest and most successful way to get started. Of course it's also the cheapest. You can grow papayas using seed from shop bought papayas.
However, the papaya can be a finicky plant... Papayas are easy to grow but not necessarily so easy to keep alive for long and to get good fruit from.
Below I tell you how you can easily grow papaya from seed and how you can ensure a good supply of fruit all year round.
Growing Papaya
Papaya originated in the lowland tropics of South America, but today you find papayas growing everywhere in the tropics and subtropics. It often grows wild, and every tropical food garden has several papaya trees.
To grow good papayas you need a frost free climate, lots of sunlight, lots of water and very good soil.
If you can supply all of the above you can pretty much stick some papaya seeds in the ground at any time of the year, and six to ten months later they will start fruiting.
Ok, admittedly this sounds easier than it is for most beginner gardeners. There are some hurdles and traps to watch out for when growing papayas. But if you are aware of the possible problems then there is no reason why your first attempt at growing papayas shouldn't be a smashing success. Let's look at the details...
What Do Papayas Look Like?
Here are some pictures of papayas for those of you who have never seen papaya plants.
Papaya growing on a young tree.
Papayas are fast growing, single stem plants. The trunk is soft and does not have a bark and papayas don't have branches.
Very old papaya tree.
Papayas rarely grow to this age and size.
Well, usually papayas don't have branches. And they usually don't grow as old as the one in the photo above.
Anyway, the leaves are huge and don't last long. A papaya has just a tall trunk with a crown of leaves at the top of it. The overall appearance is a bit like a palm tree.
Papayas look like palm trees.
If a papaya loses the growing tip or is cut back it can develop multiple trunks.
The fruit grows on the trunk and since papayas continue to grow up and up the fruit is harder and harder to get to as the papaya plant gets older.
How To Grow Papaya From Seed
You can use any shop bought papaya for seeds, but you get the best results if you use seeds from locally grown papaya fruit.
Papaya seeds inside the fruit.
Just cut the papaya in half, scrape out the seeds, and clean and dry them. (Actually, I never bother cleaning them...)
