This experiment was conducted to explore the reasons of difference between ‘Zard’ olive orchard with the poor vegetative growth rate and fruit set and orchard with suitable vegetative growth rate and fruit set in relation to some soil and plant factors during two seasons. Note that assumptions were based on the overall canopy greenness of the olive trees, so experimental orchards in which the p...

Oleuropein, Hydroxytyrosol and Tyrosol are three major phenolic compounds present in olive with remarkable pharmacological effects. In this study, leaves and fruit of four olive cultivars including ‘Fishomi’, ‘Mary’, ‘Roghani’ and ‘Zard’ grown in the north of Iran were collected for comparative evaluation of the concentration of Oleuropein, Hydroxytyrosol and Tyrosol as well as antioxidant prop...

in this regard, the morphophysiologic and anatomic characteristics of six olive cultivars (nabali, feshomi, arbequin, zard, gordal and roghani) were investigated under drought. experiments were designed based on factorial and complete block random plot with two control treatments, -1.5 mpa stress and three replicates. the investigated factors were as follows: leaf area, specific leaf area, leaf...
