Among agricultural products in Iran, pistachio is one of the major export products that can produce foreign currency. The present study evaluated factors affecting pistachio export earnings instability and its effect on agricultural export during the studied period. For this purpose, export earnings instability index was calculated using "average absolute difference between export earnings and ...

introduction : pistachio (pistaciavera l.) is a tasty nut and a good source of nutrients. ithas a high content of numerous beneficial nutritive and bioactive compounds such as proteins, carbohydrate, moisture, vitamins, minerals, fiber and other micronutrients compounds, but the most exceptional components are the amount of fats and especially unsaturated fatty acids. therefore, this nut is hig...

in order to study the genetic diversity among some male pistachio genotypes,16 male pistachio genotypes and 8 female pistachio cultivars were selected from iranian pistachio research institute (ipri). 12 rapd primers were used which totally produced 65 bands that among them 48 bands were polymorphic and 17 bands were monomorphic. cluster analysis based on similarity matrix and jaccard similarit...

pistachio nut (pistacia vera l.) is one of the most delicious and nutritious nuts in the world. in order to increase the added value of the pistachio nuts, it is necessary to develop new products to meet consumer needs. this is the first paper on pistachio halva. the product was developed using pistachio paste (as main ingredient), mixture of sugar-glucose, egg white and citric acid. the effect...

pistachio is a major agricultural export commodity in iran. nowadays, it ranks first among iran’s agricultural exports. this paper focuses on the comparative advantage in pistachio production and the export market in iran. a policy analysis matrix (pam) framework and revealed comparative advantage (rca) index are applied to 2000-2004 data to study iranian government policy regarding pistachio p...

Capacity of garden productions in Iran is such that is accounted as a country that produces thirteen garden products in the world but despite excellent condition in Iran for producing garden products, natural disasters damage production of fruits in the country therefore farmers incur a loss. Pistachio tree has been in danger of destruction and dryness. Thus, in order to reduce loss incurred on...

Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) cultivation under rainfed conditions of the South Mediterranean has not been studied in depth. Under changing climate conditions, knowledge cultivar and rootstock performances allows for optimal use genetic resources to improve yield nut quality. This study aimed evaluate growth, yield, fruit characteristics ‘Mateur’ ‘Achouri’ pistachio cultivars grafted on P. atlan...

Contamination of pistachio nuts by aflatoxigenic strains of Aspergillus species is the greatest constraint to production and export of pistachio nuts in Iran, the leading producer of pistachio nuts in the world. Kerman province is the main region in Iran where 85%, of pistachio nuts are produced. Determining the population density of Aspergillus spores in the orchards and terminals which are th...

Almost all of the general facts about abelian varieties which we use without comment or refer to as "well known" are due to WEIL, and the references for them are [12] and [3]. Let k be a field, k its algebraic closure, and A an abelian variety defined over k, of dimension g. For each integer m > 1, let A m denote the group of elements aeA(k) such that ma=O. Let l be a prime number different fro...

Given a curve of genus 3 with an unramified double cover, we give an explicit description of the associated Prym-variety. We also describe how an unramified double cover of a non-hyperelliptic genus 3 curve can be embedded in the jacobian of a curve of genus 2 over its field of definition and how this can be used to do Chabautyand Brauer-Manin type calculations for curves of genus 5 with an unr...
