A genus of tropical Asian trees that produce large, starchy fruits, including breadfruit and jackfruit species.
From Greek 'artos' (bread) + 'karpos' (fruit). The genus name was coined by botanists to capture the bread-like nutritional and culinary properties of the fruits these trees produce.
Jackfruit, the largest tree fruit on Earth, comes from this genus and can weigh up to 80 pounds—it's like nature's own pre-packaged groceries that grow from a single tree!
