Anonidium mannii : ウィキペディア英語版 | Anonidium mannii
''Anonidium mannii'' (Junglesop) is a fast-growing tropical African tree that grows to 8–30 m high, with a girth of up to 2 m.〔Useful plants of Bas-Congo province, DR Congo (2004)〕 It has 20–40 cm long leaves and large flowers which produce edible fruits generally around 4–6 kg, but which can be up to around 15 kg. Fruit flavor is rich but variable and is sometimes described as an acquired taste, though the fruits are generally in high demand in Africa, with large fruits commanding high prices. The fruit is a favorite with local people (who refer to it as "bobo"〔http://www.voanews.com/content/a-13-2009-05-28-voa51-68825652/413874.html〕) and other primates, especially bonobos. ==Fruit==
After approximately 10 years, junglesops begin to produce fruit seasonally. Normally around 5 kg, some are up to 15 kg, making the junglesop not only the largest of the Annonaceae but one of the largest fruits in the world, though not as large as the jackfruit or Telfairia pedata. Inside the tough, leathery brown skin patterned with raised diamond-shapes is a soft yellow-orange pulp with a somewhat peachy but unique flavor ranging from sweet to sour depending upon the genetic qualities of the tree concerned and upon its ripeness when harvested.〔(Lost Crops of Africa: Vol. III: Fruits )〕 Some fruits do not taste good, but its rich flavor appeals to most palates and it is rich in Vitamin A.
