Abstract
The present paper reviews the taxonomy, history, production, uses,
and the waste utilization of jackfruit. Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam
and Artocarpus integer, commonly known as the jackfruit tree and
belonging to the family Moraceae, is an exotic tree originally native to
the Western Ghats of India. Jackfruit is commonly grown in home
gardens of tropical and subtropical countries. The fruits are an important source of carbohydrates, fibers, minerals and vitamins. The
bark, roots, leaves, and fruit are mainly used as food and food additives, medicinal properties and textile industry. Jackfruit is considered
to be an underutilized fruit where most of the fruits get wasted due to
unawareness, lack of post harvest technology and gaps in supply chain
systems. A wide gap in the marketing of jack fruits and its wastes can
be processed value added products which can be fulfilled for additional income as well as food security.

Taxonomy
The name Artocarpus originated from the Greek
words artos ("bread") and karpos ("fruit"). This name was
coined by Forster and Forster, a father-and-son team of
botanists aboard the HMS Resolution on James Cook's
second trip. In the most recent change of Artocarpus, the
highly variable species A. communis is a complex of three
species of breadfruit: A. altilis, A. mariannensis and A.
camansi.
Artocarpus species
Artocarpus family includes a number of costeffective species (Grin 2010). Numerous species of the
genus bear edible fruit eg. breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis),
cempedak (Artocarpus integer), jackfruit (Artocarpus
heterophyllus), kwai muk (Artocarpus hypargyreus),
anjily (Artocarpus hirsutus) etc. Breadfruit and jackfruit
are cultivated extensively in tropical regions of Southeast
Asia.
Sub Genera
Modern phylogenetic research, based on leaf
collection, leaf anatomical characters and stipules specify
the existence of two subgenera in the genus Artocarpus
(Forst and Forst 2010):
Subgenus 1. Artocarpus: Perianth of fruit is partially
connate.
Artocarpus
Artocarpus is a genus of nearly 60 trees and shrubs Subgenus 2. Pseudojaca: Perianth entirely connate.
of Southeast Asian and Pacific origin belong to the
mulberry family, Moraceae (Zerega and Motley 2001).
In the latest review of Artocarpus, highly variable
species A. communis is a complex of three species
namely A. altilis, A. mariannensis and A. camansi.
Description
All Artocarpus species are lactiferous trees that are
collected of leaves and stems capable of produce a milky
sap. The fauna type is monoecious and produce unisexual
flowers; in addition, both sexes are present in the same
plant. The plants generate small, greenish female flowers
that grow on tiny, fleshy spikes. Following pollination, the
flowers grow up into a syncarpous fruit capable of rising
into huge sizes. The stipulated leaves vary from small and
entire (Artocarpus integer) to large (Forst and Forst 2009).

The wild jackfruit tree, Artocarpus is significant in
tropical and sub-tropical regions, mainly in South and
Southeast Asia. Jackfruit has been in cultivated in India
from ancient times. It was possibly taken by Arab traders
to the East African coast, and now it has extended all over
the tropical regions. It is thought that jackfruit originates
in the Western Ghats region of India but whether it is
found wild or not is still debatable. Some establishment
thinks there are associated wild resources in the Andaman

edible fruits that are capably valuable (Wester 1921).
Jackfruit is eaten fresh, as are fruits of A. integer
(Thumb.). Merr., the chempedak, which is truly cultivated
and locally essential in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Jackfruit is regard as a species worthy of research
attention because of its wider possible use in nutrition and
it’s possible to increase local incomes when grown in
homegarden systems. It is locally sometimes of high value
(Rehm and Espig 1991) and has proved valuable when
introducing to other parts of the world where it is fairly
extensively cultivated in suitable climates. Jarrett (1959)
have studied the subdivided subgenus Artocarpus further
into two sections mostly on characters of the
inflorescence, include those of the embryo and into
several series based primarily, on the distinct, capitate
hairs on the leaves. The inflorescence of A. heterophyllus
has a basal annulus formed by the improvement of the top
of the peduncle into a narrow flange. The series also
include A. integer. The fruit of the jack (Artocarpus
heterophyllus) is one of the accepted fruits in India, where
the total area under this fruit is about 13,460 ha. The outer
peel (rind), which is mostly fibrous and fairly rich in
calcium and pectin, constitute about 59% of the ripe fruit
(Chandha 1985).
Moraceae
Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) is one of the
most remunerative and main fruits of India. It belongs to
the family Moraceae. It is the largest among the edible
fruits. In the beginning jackfruit is a very native of India
and currently cultivate all over the tropical regions in both
the hemispheres. In India, it is mainly grown in top ten
states in production such as Kerala, Assam, West Bengal,
Chattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, TamilNadu, Tripura and
Karnataka as shown in (Figure. 1) (*source: A PEDA
agriXchange / India Production) and so on. In other parts
of the country, it is rarely grown in plantation but chosen
very much in homesteads. The largest area under
jackfruits in India is in Assam where surface area is about
8,000 hectares. In Bihar, the area is roughly 4,000
hectares and in South India trees dwell in an area of about
2000 hectares. In northern India, jackfruit is grown-up in
the foothills of Himalayas. It grows all over South India
up to an elevation of 2,400 meters.
The Moraceae family contain over 50 genera and
over 800 species which are regularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Most of the family members are trees and
shrubs but all contains latex. Genera which have stipules
leaving amplexicaul scars when they drop off and ovules
near the top of the ovary are included in the sub-family
Artocarpoideae. This includes Artocarpus. The fusion of
individual fruits to make a syncarp is seen not only in
Artocarpoideae but in numerous genera in other sub- Annual Production of Jackfruit in South India

Except in Panruti. This quiet coastal taluk in Cuddalore

produces the best jackfruits in the country – fat, sweet and

Mukkanis - Maa, Palaa, Vaazhai - (Mangoes, Jackfruits,
and Bananas). Of course, bananas are accessible all over
the year. The other two are not as plenty as bananas. The
Jackfruit, called ‘Palaa Pazham’, in Tamil is the second of
the Mukkani. The sweetness of the Jackfruit is a
trademark of its recognition. The Jackfruit is accessible
during the summer season and once the rain arrives, the
jackfruits are not offered and the onset of rain decreases
the taste in the fruit and is not tasty as the ones in the midsummer. In Panruti, Cuddalore district, TamilNadu, the
Jackfruit farming is more. The biggest jackfruit in Panruti
weighs over 70 kg which essentially makes it a hot
challenger for the "Guinness Book of Records". A

of a world record title every year. Other districts produce

Chempedak is a wild and also generally cultivated
fruit tree of Malaysia and Indonesia. The tree grows to 20
meters (m) in height, in wet tropical regions in lowland
and montane forests to 1200 m a.s.l. (4000 ft.). Even
though balanced and conical in shape in nature, in
development it is often uneven (Chandlee 1988); all parts
of the tree contain latex. In appearance, chempedak fruit is
related to jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), to which it
is directly related, in a sub-group of the breadfruit genus
(Anon 1986). Compare with jackfruit, chempedak is
sweeter and has less acidity. It has a strong aroma.
Customers like its light and delicate texture. The seeds, 15
-25 mm across, are also edible, and a marvelous resource.
Artocarpus integer (Thumb.).
Taxonomy
Artocarpus integer, generally known as cempedak
(pronounced "chem-pe-dak"), is a species of tree in the
family Moraceae, and in the same genus as breadfruit and
jackfruit. It is indigenous to southeast Asia, from
Indonesia and the Malay Peninsula to the island of New
Guinea. It is also grown-up and eaten in Andhra Pradesh
and Tamil Nadu states of India (Verheij and Coronel
1991).
Description
Cempedak trees are large, evergreen trees is shown
in (Fig 2). They can cultivate to a height of 15 - 20 m,
although most only reach a dozen meters. The trees are
monoecious, with male and female flowers rising on the
same tree. There are many varieties, even though few are
named. The vigorously rising tree can bear heavy crops of
fruit once or twice a year.
Vegetos 31 (1) March, 2018
Agronomy
The chempedak tree is fast growing and does not
require a lot of care except in the early farming phase,
where microclimate control is suggested. Bor (1980),
when a few metres tall, however, full sun is recommends,
since trees overshaded will cultivate too tall for easy
harvest. The smaller version fully-grown tree is 9-12m tall
and bears most of its fruit on the lesser branches and
trunks. Chempedak varies in yield; nevertheless, very
heavy crops are common.
Ecology
A. integer is an under stor ey tr ee usually
originate rising in secondary and occasionally primary
forests in lowland tropical regions in the rainforest areas
up to 500 m altitude or occasionally higher, where there is
no separate dry season (Lamprecht 1989).

In Borneo, the skin of the cempedak can be process
into food called mandai. Mandai is prepared by peeling
the fruit until it looks white, and then soaked in brine to
protect and soften the texture. The fruit may be sopping
for a few hours. Mandai is generally consumed by frying
until brown (Jansen 1997).
