Thank you for the info Ashish. I'll keep it in mind and watch out for it on my trees. What the locals do here is wrap the fruit in a sack to avoid the infection seen on the fruit. Check out my latest banana plant spotting the tree next to it is a lanka with a sack covering its fruits :D

I did not study about Jackfruit. I observed what people do in such cases with this fruit from my childhood.

I believed Jackfruits are originated from my native place Kokan in India. I have seen lots of Jackfruits every year. Season of this year is about to end. This black colour is appeared after some infection of some decease caused by Bacteria from core of fruit. Fruit get shrunk at Black colour and all Fruit will be infected slowly. Yellow colour around black means leak of gum inside fruit. If Black patches seen all around fruit means it can be useless.
