Prunus avium, commonly called wild cherry,[3] sweet cherry [3] or gean [3] is a species of cherry, a flowering plant in the rose family, Rosaceae. It is native to Europe, Anatolia, Maghreb, and Western Asia, from the British Isles[4] south to Morocco and Tunisia, north to the Trondheimsfjord region in Norway and east to the Caucasus and northern Iran, with a small isolated population in the western Himalaya.[5] The species is widely cultivated in other regions and has become naturalized in North America, New Zealand and Australia.[6][7][8]
Prunus avium has a diploid set of sixteen chromosomes (2n = 16).[9] All parts of the plant except for the ripe fruit are slightly toxic, containing cyanogenic glycosides.
