for the successful tree establishment, an evaluation of land suitability is necessary.in this paper, we demonstrate how to implement fuzzy classification of land suitability in agis environment for afforestation with juglans regia in gharnaveh watershed of golestanprovince in iran. juglans regia is one of the most important agro-forestry species in manyrural parts of iran. relevant criteria for...

Juglans L. (walnuts and butternuts) is an economically and ecologically important genus in the family Juglandaceae. All Juglans are important nut and timber trees. Juglans regia (Common walnut), J. sigillata (Iron walnut), J. cathayensis (Chinese walnut), J. hopeiensis (Ma walnut), and J. mandshurica (Manchurian walnut) are native to or naturalized in China. A strongly supported phylogeny of th...

the first step in walnut breeding programs is to identify and evaluate superior genotypes of fruit trees. hence, there are various walnut breeding programs in various areas of iran. a study aimed to evaluate the morphological and chemical characteristics of selected superior genotypes of walnut was conducted in the shahroud region in 2011-2012.  the following genotypes were selected in this stu...

Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.), valued for both its nut and wood, is an ecologically important temperate tree species native to the mountainous regions of central Asia. Despite its importance, there are still few transcriptomic resources in public databases for J. regia, limiting gene discovery and breeding. Here, more than 49.9 million sequencing reads were generated using Illumina sequenci...

background and aims: walnuts are good sources of polyunsaturated fatty acids (pufa) and polyphenols which have beneficial effects such as proper growth, decreasing coronary heart disease, prevention of several kinds of cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-mutagenic activities. in this study, the fatty acid content and antiradical activity of different walnut (juglans regia l.) genotypes grown in ...
