figuier commun

The Common Fig (<em>Ficus carica</em>) is a deciduous tree or large shrub belonging to the genus Ficus within the family Moraceae. It is widely recognised for its broad, lobed leaves and distinctive edible fruit, the fig, which is a syconium — a fleshy, hollow structure enclosing numerous small flowers. The species is typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions, and has a wide geographic distribution spanning Africa including eight countries, Asia including Qatar, Taiwan, and Yemen, 18 European countries, North America including Canada and the United States, Oceania and the Pacific including five countries, and South America including five countries. <em>Ficus carica</em> has not been evaluated under IUCN criteria. It has been cultivated for thousands of years as a food crop across the Mediterranean region and western Asia, and is considered one of the earliest domesticated plants. Pollination typically involves a specialised mutualistic relationship with fig wasps. Biological traits including average lifespan and body dimensions in the wild remain poorly documented in the scientific literature.
