to study the genetic variations in pistachio cultivars, 42 female pistachio cultivars from station no.2 of rafsanjan, 25 cultivars from pistachio research station of kerman, 40 cultivars from station no. 1 of naseriyyeh region, 3 cultivars from damghan region, as well as 5 ones from khorasan region were taken for experimentation. to carry out cluster analysis based on morphological traits, the ...

Temperature reduction in early spring, especially corporate with buds swelling, sometimes causes severe damages. Most of the fruit trees in tropical and semi-tropical regions, especially in more critical conditions, moderate, at early spring are subjected to the frostbite and winter cold injuries. This study aimed to evaluate the amount of proline, total protein, and soluble sugars during the p...

Objective In this study, the levels and antioxidant activities of some secondary metabolites isolated from five pistachio (Pistacia vera) cultivars collected from four different geographical regions of Iran, were studied. Materials and Methods Total phenolic compounds levels were determined by Folin-Ciocalteu method. Total flavonoid content was determined as AlCl3 complex and expressed as mg ...

To study the effects of thyme, savory, mint, and eucalyptus essences on photosynthetic efficiency, chlorophyll fluorescence, changes of transpiration, and leaf temperature of two cultivars of pistachios, namely, Abbasali and Shahpasand, a research was done in one of the commercial gardens of Damghan in 2012. This experiment was implemented in split, split plot as complete randomized block desig...

Micrografting can be used to produce healthy seedlings, assess scion-rootstock compatibility and promote precocity. The first objective of this project was to study the impacts of in vitro micropropagation of four major Iranian pistachio cultivars, namely ‘Ahmad Aghaei’, ‘Akbari’, ‘Badami Sefid’ and ‘Kalle Ghochi’ in two different medium Murashige and Skoog (MS) and Driver and Kuniyuki...

The polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of Nonpareil, Carmel, Butte, Sonora, Fritz, Mission, and Monterey almond cultivars harvested over three seasons in California were examined. LC-MS was employed to quantify 16 flavonoids and two phenolic acids in acidified methanol extracts of almond skins. The 3-year mean polyphenol content of cultivars ranged from 4.0 to 10.7 mg/100 g almonds. Is...

The nutritional problems in almond orchards have increased because of alkaline soils and insufficient nutrition. This study was done to evaluate the effect of nano-chelate super plus ZFM (Zinc, Iron and Manganese) spraying on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of almond commercial cultivars. This work was carried out in factorial experiment base on randomized complete block design wit...
