pistacia atlantica subsp. mutica is one of the most valuable forest tree species in iran that has been severely exploited for a long time. therefore, understanding the genetic diversity of different populations can be an important step towards the development and restoration of the habitat of this invaluable tree species. in this study, in order to study the genetic diversity, 10 populations in...

in order to optimize callus induction in pistacia atlantica desf. subsp. kurdica rech. f., the effect of different plant growth regulator (pgr) combinations were studied. inflorescence axis explants were cultured on wpm medium supplemented with 1, 2 and 3 mg/l of tdz or 1, 2 and 3 mg/l of ba, in combination with 1mg/l different auxins: 2, 4-d,  naa  and iba . callus initiation was observed in a...

Background: Pistacia is a genus of flowering plants from the Anacardiaceae family that grows in different parts Iran. This has pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-mutagenic, and anti-inflammatory activities. Objectives: In this study, we investigated anti-melanogenic effect extracts essential oil unripe fruits P. atlantica subsp. Kurdica on B16F10 cell line. M...

Objectives. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Pistacia atlantica resin extract on the rat skin burn wound healing. Methods. Thirty-two Wistar rats were divided into four groups and treated by vehicle, 5%, 10%, and 20% concentration of Pistacia atlantica resin extract for 14 days (G1, G2, G3, and G4, resp.). The efficacy of treatment was assessed based on reduction of bu...

In this study, the essential oil (EO) of Pistacia atlantica subsp. kurdica was added at the rate of 10 g/kg of daily diet of rainbow trout and its effect on gut microbiota (Enterobacteriaceae, Lactobacillus spp., total count), growth performance and antioxidant status of rainbow trout fillet was investigated. Sixty apparently healthy rainbow trout with an approximate weight of 150 g ±3.5 were r...

Salinity represents a major environmental constraint which can severely limit plant establishment in the arid and semi-arid areas in Tunisia. The present work was carried out to study the response of Pistacia vera L. and Pistacia atlantica Desf. seedlings to salt stress. Evaluation of salinity effects on both species was investigated using five increasing NaCl concentrations (0, 20, 40, 60 and ...
