Assessment of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium uptake capacity and root growth in mature alternate-bearing pistachio (Pistacia vera) trees.
We examined interrelationships between crop load, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) uptake, and root growth in mature, alternate-bearing pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) trees. Pistachio trees bear heavy (on-year) and light (off-year) fruit crops in alternate years. Uptake and partitioning of N, P, and K among tree parts were determined during (a) spring flush (mid-March to late May),...
متن کاملAlternate bearing and the possible role of carbohydrates in bud abscission of pistachio (Pistacia vera L.)
Pistachio produces an abundant number of inflorescent buds every year (during spring and early summer) which abscise mainly on fruiting branches during seed development. Competition of the developing ovaries/seeds with inflorescent buds for nutrients was suggested as being primarily responsible for bud abscission. Although leaf N correlated with bud retention, foliar application of N did not re...
متن کاملEffects of Foliar Application of Potassium and Zinc on Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) Fruit Yield
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of foliar applications of potassium and zinc on the fruit yield and quality as well as leaf nutrient concentrations of pistachio cv. ‘Chrokeh’. The experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications per treatment. Treatments were three levels of K2SO4 (0, 1 and 2%) and thre...
متن کاملSeasonal changes in carbohydrate and nitrogen contents of olive trees ʻFishomiʼ cultivar in several parts under alternate bearing conditions
Some olive cultivars possess high tendency to alternate bearing, which have a minus economic effect on olive industry. The experiment was performed in an olive orchard located in Shiraz region. Monthly monitoring of concentrations of unstructured carbohydrates (glucose, fructose, sucrose, mannitol and starch), protein, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus in leaves, branches and roots of olive tr...
متن کاملDrying Kinetics of Pistachio Nuts (Pistacia vera L.)
The effect of different air temperatures (40, 50, 60 and 70°C), air velocities (1 and 2 m/s) and bed depth (monolayer, 3 and 5 cm) on drying kinetics and lipid quality (peroxide value and free fatty acids) of a variety of Persian Pistachio nuts (Abasali variety) were studied. Additionally, effective diffusivity (D ) was determined eff by using Fick’s second law varied from 7.061×10 to 2.105×10 ...
