In Italian, the term derives from the word durone, meaning fruit firmness. This name covers many regional variations and historical local varieties (landraces), which are not the result of industrial breeding but have developed through folk selection.
Specific morphological characteristics of the plant are absent due to the diversity of forms included in the group. Fruits of these varieties are traditionally consumed fresh, are valued for their pronounced fleshy consistency, and ripening periods vary significantly depending on the specific ecotype.
