介绍了我国果树资源及果树产业、科研当前水平；阐述了有关果业发展拟研究的五个问题：（1）果树传统品种组群与现代化生产及专业化；（2）果树发展与生态环境建设；（3）重视果树根系研究；（4）果品加工发展要加速研究与中试，加工产业发展要注意科学进程和大、中、小企业结合；（5）建立果品优质生产工程的技术体系。具体包括：品种组合与专业化，“世界品种”，名特优品种的不断选育，无公害基地的环境保护，根系研究对持续发展和提高产量品质的潜力，营养基因型根系，生根基因，建立质量工程技术体系，果品加工业的逐步进程等。

Fruit germplasm resources, levels of fruit industry, and research status at present in China are desqribed. Discussion lays particular emphasis on (i) realizing modernization and specialization in production of traditional variety groups; (ii) fruit development and construction of ecological environment; (iii) attaching great importance to root system research; (iv) development of fruit processing industry at a suitable speed and on the basis of scientific investigation and paying attention to reasonable combination of large-, mid- and small-scales; (v) establishing an engineering-technic system for production of quality fruits. Concretely, the research should cover variety combination and specialization, breeding ‘ worldwide varieties´ and famous-special-fine varieties, production of nuisanceless fruits via environment protection, putting root system research to aim at sustainable development and fruit quality, nutrition-genotypic root systems, renting genes, forming an engineering-technic system to guarantee fruit quality, knowledge of gradual progress in fruit processing industry, etc.
