• The classification of fruit trees and other cultivated plants has become an active field in agronomy, especially after the development of molecular markers, e.g., isozyme, RFLP, RAPD, AFLP, etc. However, some researchers do not understand the nature and limitation of these markers and they erroneously infer so-called "genetic distance" or phylogeny from them. In addition, some characters of cultivated plants like network phylogeny and lack of natural population confuse their classification with the methodology of wild interspecific or higher taxa. The research problems that we are confronted with are not necessarily resolved by genetic distance or inference of phylogeny. It is important to use the methods of orthodox genetics for pedigree levels and to use those of population genetics for higher but infraspecific levels.
