There are many different types of fashionably edible fruits today due to the growing world of Appling genetics to fruit and citrus . Today fruit and citrus are commonly hybridized for benefits. Crossing fruit types and mutations to get the most desirable apple and juicy oranges has become a new type of biology.
The apple of today is firm and sweet as the apple of yesterday was tart and bland. Apples like the Rome and Granny Smith are being replaced with Gala and Fuji species.
