the genetic diversity of a large number of pistachio genotypes grown in iran is not exactly known. most of the studies on genetic diversity of iranian pistachio varieties are based on morphological characteristics or isozyme markers. in the present study, the genetic diversity of selected pistachio cultivars along with some wild species were evaluated by amplified fragment length polymorphism (...

pistachio nut (pistacia vera l.) is one of the popular and nutritious tree nuts in the world. pistachio spread is a new product which is made from pistachio paste, icing sugar, soy protein isolate (spi), and red palm oil (rpo). this study involved sensory acceptability (by 32 assessors) using hedonic scale and development of suitable terminology for describing pistachio spread using quantitativ...

Heterodera mediterranea completes embryogenic development in 15-18 days at 24 +/- 2 C. On olive and pistachio seedlings the postembryogenic development was completed in 42-50 days at 24-30 C. Juveniles and adults have semiendoparasitic habits and do not penetrate completely into the root tissue. This cyst forming nematode has been detected only on Olea europaea, Pistacia lentiscus, and P. vera....

Nowadays, application of high speed crafts with large tonnage is of our country's essences. In order to gain high speed, new multi hull crafts are traditional. A hull form having been used recently in frigates is the Trimaran. Trimaran hull form and motion have been extensively studied due to the development of numerical and analytical methods as well as the exploitation of experimental setup. ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of leaf and different parts of fruit (hull, shell, and kernel) of Bene in Ilam province. Total phenolic content was determined with the Folin- Ciocalteu Reagent (FCR); antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts were examined by DPPH (2,2diphenyl- 1- picrylhydrazyl), FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant pow...

We present a nonstandard hull construction for locally uniform groups in a spirit similar to Luxembourg’s construction of the nonstandard hull of a uniform space. Our nonstandard hull is a local group rather than a global group. We investigate how this construction varies as one changes the family of pseudometrics used to construct the hull. We use the nonstandard hull construction to give a no...

Human beings have known about pistachio nuts since 6000 bc. Since then, pistachios have been systematically incorporated into the diet of various cultures. They are nutrient-dense nuts with a healthy nutritional profile that contains fiber, unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant compounds.
