The **apple** is the pomaceous[2] fruit[3] of the apple tree[4], ___Malus domestica___ of the rose [family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_(biology%5C[5])) (Rosaceae[6]). It is one of the most widely cultivated[7] tree fruits, and the most widely known of the many members of genus[8] *Malus[9]* that are used by humans. Apples grow on deciduous[10] trees which are large if grown from seed, but small if grafted onto roots (rootstock). The tree originated in Central Asia[11], where its wild ancestor, *Malus sieversii[12]*, is still found today. Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe, and were brought to North America by European colonists. Apples have been present in the mythology and religions of many cultures, including Norse[13], Greek[14] and Christian traditions. In 2010, the fruit's genome[15] was decoded as part of research on disease control and selective breeding in apple production.
