Exploring Fruit Tree Species as Multifunctional Greenery: A Case of Its Distribution in Indonesian Cities

Planting multifunctional trees (e.g., fruit species) in cities can promote genetic conservation, economic activity, ecosystem services, and social cohesion. However, Indonesia, the relationship between abundance of tree species different city characteristics, including their involvement national smart project, is still unknown. In this study, published reports field surveys were used to evaluate distribution its with characteristics 224 514 Indonesian order identify for greenery. This first study on at level. The identified 151 90 genera 40 families, large-sized fruits, such as avocados, breadfruit, coconuts, durians, jackfruit, mangos. On average, contained 54 species, which 21 (38.9%) trees. These findings indicate that are important contributors conservation local trees, be further evaluated new a city’s project bore no (p > 0.05) number species. Conversely, non-fruit tended more diverse cities. Since presence associated population, geographic position, climate, altitude, attitude towards fragility sustainable introducing maintaining these greenery requires advocacy stakeholders.
