Rashi and many other Rishonim maintain that the requirement to separate terumah from figs and other fruits from a tree is only Rabbinical even in the times of the Beis Hamikdosh. The Biblical obligation of terumah only applies to grain, olives and grapes. The Gemora, that mentions Rabbinical terumah in the times of the Beis Hamikdosh can be referring to figs.
The Rambam (Terumos 2:1) holds that there is a Biblical obligation to separate terumah from all fruits on a tree. The Gemora, that mentions Rabbinical terumah in the times of the Beis Hamikdosh can be referring to vegetables or terumah from any land outside of Eretz Yisroel.
It emerges from our Gemora that there is an argument between Rabbi Yochanan and Rish Lakish if there is a Biblical requirement to separate terumah nowadays. The Rambam (ibid. 26) rules in accordance with Rish Lakish that there is only a Rabbinical obligation to separate terumah nowadays. The Ra’avad disagrees, and states that the halacha follows Rabbi Yochanan.
