1 IntroductionCherries include several species of the genus Prunus, which belong to the sub-family Spiraeoideae in the plant family Rosaceae (Potter et al., 2007). The two economically most important cherry species worldwide are the sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) and the sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.). Both species are thought to have originated in the Caspian Sea and Black Sea region (Quero-García et al., 2019).
