Pineapple (scientific name: Ananas comosus) is one of the famous tropical fruits. Pineapple is native to the Amazon River Basin in Brazil and Paraguay in South America. It was introduced to China from Brazil in the 16th century. Now it has spread to the entire tropical region. Its edible part is mainly composed of the fleshy enlarged inflorescence axis and the flowers arranged spirally on the periphery. The flowers are usually not strong. The persistent perianth lobes surround a cavity, which contains atrophied stamens and styles. The leaf fibers are very tough and can be used for weaving, rope making, netting and paper making.
