  Prunus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prunus is a genus of trees and shrubs, including the plums, cherries, peaches, apricots and almonds.
Because of their considerable value as both food and ornamental plants, many Prunus species have been introduced to parts of the world to which they are not native.

 Cherry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A cherry (originally "cherise" reinterpreted as a plural, from the Old French word, in turn from Latin cerasum) is both a tree and its fleshy fruit, a type known as a drupe with a single hard stone enclosing the seed.
The cherry belongs to the family Rosaceae, genus Prunus (along with almonds, peaches, plums, apricots and bird cherries).
The cherries belong in subgenus Cerasus, distinguished from the rest of the genus by having the flowers in small corymbs of several together (not singly, nor in racemes), and in the fruit being smooth and not having a groove along one side.

The effect of different genotypes of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma cylindrosporum on in vitro rooting of micropropagated cuttings of Prunus avium and P. cerasus was studied in an attempt to determine whether ectomycorrhizal fungi could enhance in vitro adventitious root formation in plants which form arbuscular endomycorrhizas.
The cuttings of P. cerasus showed a higher rooting ability than those of P. avium since approximately 40% of them were able to root in the absence of hormonal treatment.
With P. cerasus, the percentage of survival of uninoculated cuttings ranged from 85 to 100% and fungi either did not significantly improve it or lowered it.

Plum, Almond, Peach, Apricot, Cherry, Bird Cherry, Cherry-Laurel (Prunus) - Bentham and Hooker in the "Genera Plantarum" united under Prunus the whole of the species which had at an earlier date been known under one or other of the following names: Amygdalus, Persica, Armeniaca, Prunus, Cerasus, Padus, and Lauro-cerasus.
This arrangement, which was necessary from the fact that no well-defined line could be drawn between them, has given rise to some confusion.
In the following notes the whole of the species dealt with are considered as Prunus and are arranged alphabetically; and some, not of much garden value, or those not hardy in Britain, are excluded.
