[edit] European pear cultivars - Criteria for inclusion

This list has had several interspecific hybrids (F1 (first generation), BC1 and BC2 (backcross)) cultivars. Do others working on this page feel that these should be moved to a new separate list of hybrids? Some of the hybrids are European-type (developing soft flesh) but others have crisp flesh. I think the list of European cultivars should include those in major commercial production throughout the world, plus new or other interesting cultivars. I've added some, but need to look up statistics on production. The page has US statistics, but I think that the page should be international. PEARSforUS 16:07, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
