background: the pistachio is a nut produced by about 20 species of shrub. present-day studies show the health benefits of pistachio in preventing or treating diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (cvds), cancer, multiple sclerosis (ms), and erectile dysfunction. materials and methods: medline / pubmed, and google scholar databases were searched using the keywords of pistacia vera, ...

Consumers' awareness about the nutritional profile of their diets has made the industry to respond their needs seriously. In this study, response surface methodology was used to analyze the effect of three fat replacers and two sweeteners on sensory attributes and viscosity of low- calorie pistachio butter. Balangu seed extract (BSG) (0.01-0.04), Reihan seed gum (RSG) (0.01-0.023), xanthan (0.0...

The pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) is commercially cultivated in semi-arid regions around the globe. Archaeobotanical, genetic, and linguistic data suggest that was brought under cultivation somewhere within its wild range, spanning southern Central Asia, northern Iran, Afghanistan. Historically, has primarily relied on grafting, suggesting that, as with many Eurasian tree crops, domestication re...

Page 4 F nuts, and vegetables play a significant role in human nutrition, especially as sources of vitamins (C, A, B6, thiamine, niacin, E), minerals, and dietary fiber (Quebedeaux and Bliss, 1988; Quebedeaux and Eisa, 1990; Wargovich, 2000). Their contribution as a group is estimated at 91% of vitamin C, 48% of vitamin A, 27% of vitamin B6, 17% of thiamine, and 15% of niacin in the U.S. diet. ...

The tree species, Pistacia vera (P. vera) is an important commercial product that is salt-tolerant and long-lived, with a possible lifespan of over one thousand years. Gene expression analysis is an efficient method to explore the possible regulatory mechanisms underlying these characteristics. Therefore, having the most suitable set of reference genes is required for transcript level normaliza...
