to determine the relative salt tolerance and/or resistance in seedlings of pistachio genotypes, four pot experimentswere conducted. in experiments 1 and 2, the effects of salinity on growth indices were studid. experiments were donein the form of split plot based on rcbd. in each experiment, mainplots consisted of different electrical conductivitiesof irrigation water (eciws). in experiment 1, ...

In this study, the treatment of pistachio nuts by Bacillus subtilis UTBSP1, a promising isolate to degrade aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), caused to reduce the growth of Aspergillus flavus R5 and AFB1 content on pistachio nuts. Fluorescence probes revealed that the cell free supernatant fluid from UTBSP1 affects spore viability considerably. Using high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method, 10 ...

The study was conducted to evaluate the pomological attributes and chemical composition of 35 pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) genotypes, including fifteen wild-types and twenty of the important cultivar pistachios from Iran. The results revealed that cultivar pistachios in terms of important characters such as the split nuts (78.57%), blank nuts (6.96%), 100-nuts weight (118.86 g), and si...

To obtain the best quality and quantity of pistachio fruits, knowing the most suitable time of pollination, is of paramount importance. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of pollination time, different stages of female flower development, including A (lower florets opened and clusters were green), B (lower and medial florets opened and clusters were green), C (all florets opened...

HIGHLIGHTS Adulteration of pistachio products with green pea is common due to price issues. We identified the presence down 0.1% developed protocol. HRM fast and precise for testing authenticity powdered pistachio.

Among the most important problems of pistachio are physiological disorders such as fruit abscission and production of blank nuts. Environmental stresses and inadequate nutrition during flowering time have increased these problems in recent years. In order to evaluate the effects of foliar treatments with polyamines and other compounds (amino acids and ascorbic acid) on quantitative and qualitat...

to study the chemical composition and qualitative comparison of the pistachio by-products and the effect of pistachio hull tannin on its digestibility and gas production, four experiments were carried out. in the first experiment, nutrient composition, phenolic and tannin components of the ohadi, kaleghuchi and white varieties of pistachio by-product from dehulling process were measured. pistac...
