Two Bocados, kept distinct

Documented name: the history of the first tree remains unresolved.

The Tarabana study distinguished Bocado Jobo from Bocado Común rather than merging them. Its fruit was larger in that comparison, but consumer preference was similar. The word Jobo does not prove a botanical relationship with another fruit.
