Investigation on Seedling Emergence from Direct Seeding of Quercus Persica, Pistacia Atlantica and Acer Cineracens in Natural Conditions Ilam, Dalab Forests

Anthropogenic habitat deterioration can promote changes in plant mating systems that subsequently may affect progeny performance, thereby conditioning plant recruitment for the next generation. However, very few studies yet tested mating system parameters other than outcrossing rates; and the direct effects of the genetic diversity of the pollen received by maternal plants (i.e. correlated pate...

Pistacia vera L. is a decidious tree. To investigate the influence of soaking seeds in polyamines (PAs) spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd) and putrescine (Put) on seed germination and enhancing lateral root development of ‘Ghazvini’ pistachio seedling rootstock, the experiment were carried out in petri dishes and plastic bags. Seeds were soaked in PAs( Spd, Spm, and Put) at three concentrations( ...

BACKGROUND Pistacia lentiscus (Anacardiaceae) is a flowering plant traditionally used in the treatment of various skin, respiratory, and gastrointestinal disorders. The aim of this study was to assess whether Pistacia lentiscus oil has any short term toxic effects in vivo and in vitro. METHODS Pistacia lentiscus oil (100µl) was administered orally into mice for 5 days. RESULTS Measurements ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Antibiotic therapy is the main choice in treatment of Escherichia coli induced infections. Using herbal medication is an alternative choice in treatment of diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial activity of two traditionally used herbs in Iranian medicine, Anacyclus pyrethrum and Pistacia lentiscus L., on Escherichia coli. MATERIALS AND ME...

Pathogenicity and anastomosis groups of seven Rhizoctonia-like isolates obtained from infected pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) seedlings were determined, in the central district Siirt province at Southeast Anatolia Region Turkey. Browning on crown root collected saplings drying plants observed. In pathogenicity test, most virulent isolate was Rs2 with a disease severity 93.75%. The group this isol...

Bio-energy from energy plants is expected to play an increasing role in the future energy system, with benefits in terms of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving energy security. Pistacia chinensis is believed to be one of the most promising non-food input for biodiesel production. This study focused on the marginal land availability for developing Pistacia chinensis-based bioenergy i...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of water stress on the growth and mineral concentrations in the leaves and roots of four pistachio seedling rootstocks including pistacia vera ‘badami-riz-zarand’, ‘ghazvini’, ‘sarakhs’ and p. mutica. irrigation treatments were 100% etc (control), 65% etc (medium stress) and 30% etc (severe stress) applying for 75 days on four months old pistachio...

The effect of Pistacia lentiscus L. leaf extracts (aqueous, 30% ethanol and 70% ethanol) was studied on the rat isolated trachea. Pistacia lentiscus L. extracts induced a relaxation on basal tone and precontracted trachea. On the rat isolated trachea precontracted by acetylcholine 10M, Pistacia lenticus L. leaf extracts (aqueous, 30% ethanol and 70% ethanol) induced a relaxation. EC 50 values f...
