Definition as written by bioagri:

Pomology (from Latin pomum (fruit) + -logy, http://pomology.org) is the applied life science of fruit cultivation and production. Pomology is usually confined to the cultivation of perennial temperate, subtropical and tropical fruit trees. Viticulture, i.e. the applied life science of cultivating tablegrapes and winegrapes, is a special branch of pomology.
