Flowering of pistachio trees
Pistachio is a plant with two bases, male and female flowers Iranian Pistachio in clusters and laterally
They appear on annual branches (pistachio flowers without petals and tubers
Are nectar-producing and pollinated by wind. Although 92
The percentage of flowers in the inflorescence is lateral, but only 5% of them are fruit
These fruits become more adjacent to the tips of the lateral branches
they take. In contrast, only 8% of the flowers are end point (cluster end and end)
Occupy clusters, but 66% of them turn into fruit.
Therefore, the percentage of fruit set at the end of the inflorescence is higher and towards
The middle and base parts are reduced. Of all the flowers in the inflorescence
Only about 10% of them turn into fruit. Article figures from
In terms of flowering time are divided into three categories:
1. Early flowering cultivars: Koleghoochi, Mumtaz, Nogh pistachio white
2. Medium flower cultivars: Ahmad Aghaei, Ouhadi, Badami Zarand
3. Deir Gol cultivars: Akbari, Shah Pasand, Khanjari Damghan
The choice of pollinator should be such that its flowering peak on the second to third day
Flowering is a female variety. Pistachio ovaries are pollinated when the flowers open
Are not immature. In one study, most female flowers bloomed all day
Or they had reached maturity one day after all the flowers had been pollinated.
Flowers that were pollinated two days after flowering, only 25% of them
They had fertility. Flowers that are pollinated 3 days after flowering
Were, had little fruit and so did the flowers that 4 days after
Flowering, pollinated, had the least fruiting. So
The highest percentage of fruiting was obtained in flowers during the first two days
After flowering, they were pollinated. In non-pollinated flowers more than 50
The percentage of female flowers was incomplete. Pollen time was familiar with the operation
With pistachio seedlings, female flowers are important and determined after the opening of the first flowers
Is the quantity of the product. Production of hollow half-brain fruits of characterization
There are several species of pistachios. In Kerman cultivar, all fruits were pollinated
About 24.5% are aborted due to abortion and 3.2% are abnormal due to abortion
It is parthenocarpy. Although the effect of carbohydrates on the fruiting of pistachios and in
The result is confirmed on the amount of product, statistically significant difference between
The percentage of fruit formation in fertile and low-yield years has not been reported. That"s this year
1975 percent declared the Kerman cultivar to be 26 percent, but stated that the percentage
Void varies from 23 to 100% depending on the figure.
Production of flower buds on the growing branches of the current season and flowering and formation
The fruit is on annual branches. In other words, floral and exclusive
Flowering buds occur in the year before flowering. Inflorescence formation in
Leaf axis and flower primordium formation for next year"s crop in mid-year
It takes place from April to early May.
Flower buds are larger than vegetative buds and their tips are curved
There are more that are easily recognizable under normal circumstances.
