Prunus domestica Prunus domestica Prunus domestica (sometimes referred to as "Prunus × domestica") is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae. A deciduous tree, it includes many varieties of the fruit trees known as plums in English, though not all plums belong to this species. The greengages and damsons also belong to subspecies of "P. domestica". Its hybrid parentage was believed to be "Prunus spinosa" and "Prunus cerasifera".; however recent cytogenetic evidence seem to implicate 2x, 4x, 6x "P. cerasifera" as the sole wild stock from which the cultivated 6x prunus domestica could have evolved. This is the most commonly
Prunus kansuensis locally. The fruit is eaten by the endangered golden snubnosed monkeys ("Rhinopithecus roxellana"). Prunus kansuensis Prunus kansuensis (), sometimes called the Chinese bush peach, is a putative species of peach native to China. It is found in Gansu, Guizhou, Hubei, Qinghai, Shaanxi and Sichuan provinces. It is a shrub or tree tall, preferring to grow at above sea level. A genetic and morphological study has shown that it is conspecific with "Prunus persica", the cultivated peach. "P.kansuensis" is being investigated as a source for rootstocks and for crop improvement due to its resistance to multiple diseases, to drought, and to
