Cultivated varieties of fruit trees are maintained vegetatively by cuttings, rooting of twigs or suckers. These methods are in sharp contrast with the life cycle of their wild relatives (with high levels of heterozygosity), which reproduce from seeds. Man-made selection has led to some improved ...
