Abstract: The current research dealt with a numerical study of general and precise morphological characteristics and anatomical characteristics for (6) cultivars of Apricots Prunus armeniaca L. she Sayeb, Canion, Castelbrite, Priana, Sndyany, Zaginia. In addition to (6) cultivars of Plum Prunus xdomestica L. Songold, Freedom, Showtime, Pissardi, Italica, Sant Rosa part of the Rosaceae family). All these cultivars grown in a cultured manner in different regions of northern Iraq, including Dohuk (Zakho and Zawitya), Erbil (Hiran district) and Mosul (Yaramcheh). Computational methods were used in the current research to find relationships and differences between the taxonomic ranks of the two species of the genus Prunus, The studied cultivars were used as scientific classification units, which relied on morphological and anatomical aspects in order to find the degree of similarity between the studied Apricot and Plum cultivars, The studied items were converted into digital data, placed in a numerical matrix
