Dear Pudji ji: Sure looks interesting... but I don't know answer to your question, but since I deal with weird diseases... I always think, ANYTHING is possible....
seriously though... I would wait till its ripe... if its under my control... or if its in some one else's control ..like a farmer... pay him to keep an eye on it and sell you the rights to the fruit... then when ripe , cut it open...since jackfruit and banana both are are edible, eat /taste the fruit pulp... photogrpah it first... and .. .voila you and then we will know if it indeed is a wonder of nature at work with a real live hybrid... right before your... and thru you, our eyes... ISN'T life wonderful? and MYSTERIOUS!!
