Is this a mistake? The page for apples suggests that domestica is incorrect and that pumila is the proper species name.
Clone Apple?
What exactly does this mean? That all Fuji apples trees are clones of each other? That the apples are a clone of another type of apple? It is not clear to me, and I don't *think* I'm that thick ... :-)

Apple Weight?
90 tons of apples produced in Japan annually? That number seems suspiciously low for a country that enjoys Fuji apples so much. Is it supposed to be 90 million tons by any chance?

90 million is too large. A google search suggested that the entire Northern Hemisphere apple production is in the 40-50 million ton/year range. See, for instance, the USDA
2001/2002 report. Still, 90 tons seems oddly small.

Ahah, found some decent
data. That source says Japan produced 963,300 metric tons in 1995/1996. And
this site from Japan lists annual harvest at 900,000 tons. I'll update the article.
138.163.160.42
I corrected one statement where it said 12-18% sugar. This is incorrect, apples by weight are 9-11% sugars, with 4g of fiber. Most center around 10% of digestible carbohydrates. When it says "sugar" it linked to sugar as in sucrose, which is somewhat false. The predominant carbohydrates in apples, as in all fruits, are: fructose, glucose, and sucrose with minimal galactose and other monosaccharides.

outside of japan
"Outside of Japan" should also describe non-American places. That section seems incomplete or just strangely-worded and horribly American-centric.
The "Nofootnotes" template was added to the article in February, 2008. As of this writing, there is only one standard footnote for the article. However, there is a table with information on numerous United States plant patents, each with the plant patent number. Becuase US Plant Patents are legal documents generated by the United States Government, each with a unique number, there are therefore numerous references to external documents within the text, although not in the standard Wikipedia format. Is there a way to make this fact clearer while retaining the plant patent numbers in the text?

Production of China
Chinese Wikipedia states that Fuji apples take 45% of all apple production of China. I understand it cites old data from 2000; however I cannot find data that verifies the 80% in this entry. So I inserted a "citation needed" message.

this can't be correct ? I go to many fruit stores in Shanghai, never have I seen even one Fuji apple :( I know Shandong was big at apple growing ten years ago but they were mostly green apples, similar to Golden Delicious but better.

I found a source and added it to the article. Updated data is: In 2016/2017, Fuji apples accounted for nearly 70% of China's 43 million tons grown.

My experience is the opposite: 陕西红富士 is the default apple of many Shanghai independent fruit stores, the kind that loves putting some boxes of fruit out on the sidewalk. It is what "apple" means to me; it’s the baseline I used to compare new apples against.
