What is the difference between paw and papája?

Pawpaw and Papaya are terms that are often used interchangeably, and in many cases it is assumed that references to the same type of fruit-yellow fruit similar to melon that grows in many tropical climate. Despite the confusion, Pawpaw and Papaya are two separate plant species, with dominant species of papayas called Carica papaya are grown in West India, South America and Hawaii, as well as in India and other countries. There are about 45 well -cultivated types of papayas, and these are sometimes also referred to as paw paw. However, the real paw is a member of the family asimina eight species that come from the North American countries of the US and Canada, and are much less widely grown and consumed there. While the Papaje trees are real trees that can grow to a height of 33 feet (10 meters), the paws are considered shrubs or small trees that often reach a height of 7 feet (about 2 meters). Trees of paws and papays will also find dominance in different climates, while Papaya prefers TEFull, wet tropical environment and paw the ability to tolerate and grow well on a gentle, hilly terrain.

Another key difference between the paw and the papáj is the fruit itself. Papaya is a sweet tropical fruit that has an avocado shape and can be up to 18 inches long (45 centimeters) when it is fully mature. However, the fruit of the paw is in fact considered an elongated berry, which grows only to a length of 6 inches (16 centimeters) and has a softer taste like bananas.

While the types of paws and papaje were discovered in approximately the same period of time with early colonial settlers to America, since then, different ways have been issued. Papája is Believed that it was created in island countries of West India and northern tropical areas of South America, of which the Spaniard took samples back to Europe at the beginning of the 15th century and from there it spread wide throughout the world. The popular tribe of the papaya called "Solo" was also an idean on the islands of Hawaii, Barbados and Jamaica in 1911, which has a yellow pink interior.

Pawpaw does not store or send well like most tropical fruits, so in North America it has not gained widespread dominance. It has some popularity between cooking Cajun in the Gulf of the American border states such as Louisiana. He has also cultivated the east of the Mississippi River since Hernando de Soto, the famous 16th century by the Spanish explorer and conqueror to be the first European to cross the Mississippi River, while investigating the interior of the continent. Pressure in the US and Canada is often sold on the outdoor farmers market, which often gather berries from shrubs that grow wildly in the forest. However, some US states have tried to cultivate small stalls of shrubs or tree, and also grown in nations such as Romania, Israel and Japan.
