When evaluating the obtained results, in both agroecosystems it could be observed that the characters which differed statistically were: percentages of feminine and hermaphrodite flowers, percentages of feminine and hermaphrodite fruits, height of the first fruits, weight of the fruits and yields per plant and per hectare, with a better behavior in the plants obtained in vitro . The plants, in both agroecosystems, expressed a good agronomic behavior. Key words: Carica papaya L., height, fruits, postures, subculture
