It doesn't count, and in all respects, Zizyphus jujuba has little to do with jujube. Even if scientists find its fossil15 million years ago, it only proves that there was Zizyphus jujuba at that time, not that it is? The ancestor of wanzao? .

(This is the one found)

First, the families are different. Zizyphus jujuba is a plant of Rhamnaceae, and the common jujube is Rhamnaceae. The biggest feature of these two families and genera is that one is a small tree and the other is a tree. Maybe some people still don't understand between the two, so I'll explain them in the most intuitive way:

Ordinary jujube, its highest tree is 10 meter, that is, three stories high, and when it grows up, it branches from the root, slowly grows into a ball, and then begins to bear fruit, especially for various varieties of jujube after hybridization. After grafting, it will grow branches and then start to yield.

However, the highest height of Zizyphus jujuba is more than 20 meters. Although it grows fruit when it is short, the trunk at the beginning is straight, not inclined like jujube, but grows thick from the root, and most of it grows until three or four meters high.

Second, the core of fruit and food is different. Generally, the nucleus of jujube is two-pointed, while Zizyphus jujuba is a round nucleus. There are many kinds of dates that we can eat now, but most of them are pointed dates, so there are them? Jujube nail? This kind of weapon, for jujube varieties on the market, whether it is winter jujube, red jujube or green jujube, can not be separated from this state.

However, the core of Zizyphus jujuba is rather round. Its scientific name is Goblin, and it can even be worn as a beaded bracelet, so it is a bit worse than the average jujube. If you are a jujube, wouldn't you be happy to give you such an ancestor who doesn't look like yourself at all?

Third, the pulp is different. The pulp of jujube is soluble solid, while the pulp of Zizyphus jujuba is pulpy. Let's talk about eating. These two varieties are edible. Jujube is mostly sweet, but Zizyphus jujuba is almost sour to the extreme. Although there are many delicious foods in this fruit, few of them can eat it.

Jujube is mostly crisp and sweet. Although the taste is different, the pulp is hard fruit, not berries.

However, Zizyphus jujuba is a berry. When it is ripe, the whole fruit is soft, and if it is eaten alone, it tastes slippery, and if it is not careful, it is in danger of swallowing the core together, which is their biggest difference.

From the above aspects, Zizyphus jujuba has nothing to do with the jujube we understand. This ancestor jujube can't recognize it!
