A simplified model for the prediction of carbon balance was developed to elucidate seasonal trend sink-source relationships in bearing and non-bearing pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) branches. Seasonal changes growth rate vegetative (leaf shoot) reproductive (infructescence) organs were monitored branches mature rainfed trees during entire growing season (April–September). Simulations from used ga...

Aim: We aimed to determine the most common foods that cause sensitivity in children with acute urticaria (AU) Adıyaman province. Materials and Methods: The results of 70 who underwent skin prick tests for AU between September 2021-May 2022 at Training Research Hospital were analyzed. Results: Sensitivity least one food was detected 10 (14,3%) children. Five (7.1%) sensitized egg, four (5.7%) co...

Nuts are among the crops that can be contaminated by aflatoxins (AFs), mycotoxins mainly produced by A. flavus and A. parasiticus. These fungi are well adapted to tropical and sub-tropical areas and tend to contaminate damaged or stressed crops. Both peanuts and pistachio nuts are well protected by their shells during the growing season, but damage caused by parasites, or early split in pistach...

Spatial patterning of periodic dynamics is a dramatic and ubiquitous ecological phenomenon arising in systems ranging from diseases to plants to mammals. The degree to which spatial correlations in cyclic dynamics are the result of endogenous factors related to local dynamics vs. exogenous forcing has been one of the central questions in ecology for nearly a century. With the goal of obtaining ...

Nuts are dry, single-seeded fruits, with a combination of beneficial compounds that aid in disease prevention and treatment. This review aims to summarize the antioxidant components nutraceutical properties applications hazelnut, almond, pistachio skins, as well discuss their ability prevent treat specific diseases based on vitro vivo studies. The search strategy included searching PubMed datab...

Research in plant disease management focuses on developing safe methods for humans and the environment in order to prevent the entry of harmful chemicals in food. Simple inorganic salts have low cost and are safe enough to be used as pesticides. Phytophthora genus causes crown and root rot (gummosis) in crops and leads to great losses in some pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) produ...

A research was conducted at Pistachio Research Institute in Rafsanjan, Iran, to evaluate the effects of P. vera L. ‘Badami’, P. vera L. ‘Sarakhs’ and P. mutica F and M. ‘Beneh’ rootstocks on mineral content of leaves and kernels of ‘Owhadi’, ‘Kalleh-ghuchi’ and ‘Ahamd-aghaii’ pistachio scion cultivars. Twenty year old trees of these combinations were used during study over 2003 and 2004. Leaves...

The modification of microbiota composition to a 'beneficial' one is a promising approach for improving intestinal as well as overall health. Natural fibres and phytochemicals that reach the proximal colon, such as those present in various nuts, provide substrates for the maintenance of healthy and diverse microbiota. The effects of increased consumption of specific nuts, which are rich in fibre...
