The pistachio green stink-bug, Brachynema germari Kolenati (Hem.: Pentatomidae), is an important pest of pistachio in Iran. In this research, the effects of four commercial pistachio cultivars that are commonly grown in Iran including Kaleghochi, Ahmadaghaii, Ohadi and Akbari were evaluated on the biology (developmental time, mortality rate, longevity) and demographic parameters of <em...

abstract to study the effects of xenia and methaxenia on the pistachio nut, 4 male genotypes from among all male genotypes provided by rafsanjan pistachio research institute were selected. the flowering period of the chosen genotypes was the same as 3 female cultivars of kalleghoochi, ohadi, and ahmadaghaii. by using split plot in the form of completely randomized blocks design, we conducted va...

Effects of kaolin applicati on were evaluated on water stress in pistachio cv. ‘Ohadi’. This experiment was conducted in one of research sites at the Pistachio Research Institute in Rafsanjan (Kerman province) in . The results show that individual and interaction effects of all treatments were significant on nutrition absorption in leaves, although there was not a steady effect on all the eleme...

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...

this study was conducted to identify the effect of gibberellic acid (ga3) on morphological characteristics of pistachio fruits. the following parameters were evaluated; unfilled fruiting, the fruit fraction, bearing and yield. this research was carried out from 2007 till 2010 in a split plot design with five concentrations of ga3 (0, 2500, 5000, 10000 and 20000 mg/l) in four replications. the m...

in this research effectiveness of immersing three types of contaminated pistachios fresh with hull (exocarp or epicarp), dried in shell and dried with hull from ohady cultivar in ozonated water 0 ppm (control), 4 and 8 ppm ozone concentrations in aqueous solution for range of exposure times 0(control), 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and12 hours, to decrease of aflatoxin (b1, b2, g1, g2 and total) were investig...

abstract in this study, fresh pistachio of 'ohadi' and 'akbari' cultivars expose to the uv-c radiation with a wavelength of 0, 3, 6 and 12 kj/m2, then located at temperature of 1 ± 3 degrees celsius for 45 days. properties or attributes, including weight loss, stiffness and sensory evaluation of fresh pistachio after 20 and 45 days storage were measured. results showed that pistachio nut weight...

Pistachio is the most important nut that is produced in Iran. Little research has been done to examine the effect of UCB1-hybride rootstock plants as tissue culture for pistachios (2011 in Toba company).This study aims to evaluate three pistachio varieties on UCB1 hybrid rootstock.  The experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design with three treatment groups (including Ohadi, ...
