Sumario:Visiting local growers fairs of New York City during a year, ranging from June, 2008 to May, 2009, a signifi cative number of apple varieties was verifi ed, demonstrating one particular aspect of plant diversity. Offered in Summer with great availability, is in Autumn and Winter that intraspecifi c diversity can be observed, crossing all seasonal periods. More than four hundred of plant species were verifi ed in the market, choosing apple as one of more evident to analysis of diversity, once it is offered in 65 cultivars in fairs of the State to which the fruit gives the nickname. They represent a kind of diversity that goes beyond the concept of specialization which is usually attributed to agriculture in developed country. The aim of this article is to demonstrate the genetic diversity and use of apples that are expressed in commercial activities in the streets and squares of New York City.
