“…The majority of the Iranian territory has a Mediterranean climate, but Southern and Eastern Iran have sub-tropical and semi-arid climates [8]. Thus, the country has a favorable climate for tropical fruit crops, such as jujube.…”

The ber fruit fly (BFF), Carpomya vesuviana Costa, 1854 (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an important key pest of the jujube, Ziziphus jujuba Miller. The main control measures against this pest are to use chemical control, but the first survey for its natural enemies was performed in Iran. Here, we report eight species of parasitic wasps of the BFF from five different families. The family Eurytomidae with three species, the families Pteromalidae and Mutillidae with two species each, and the families Braconidae and Diapriidae with one species each are associated with different immature stages of the BFF, of which Eurytoma pineticola Zerova (Eurytomidae) and Cyrtoptyx lichtensteini (Masi) (Pteromalidae) were the most abundant parasitoid species. Fopius carpomyiae (Silvestri,) was not reared on BFF on the jujube during this survey, but it was reported on Ziziphus spina-christi (L.) with a high parasitism rate. Therefore, it seems to be the most important parasitoid of BFF in Iran. The parasitoid community of BFF in Khorasan, Eastern Iran, is reviewed, and an identification key to these species is proposed.

“…In this situation, a water saving strategy is adopted for more efficient use of the available water for agriculture. Due to its tolerance to drought and its low water requirements, the cultivation of pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) has aroused great interest among farmers [10]. In addition, farmers are very interested in its cultivation under rainfed conditions to enhance the value of arid and semi-arid areas and maximize profits [11,12].…”

Cultivar and Rootstock Effects on Growth, Yield and Nut Quality of Pistachio under Semi-Arid Conditions of South Mediterranean

et al. 2022

Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) cultivation under rainfed conditions of the South Mediterranean has not been studied in depth. Under changing climate conditions, knowledge of cultivar and rootstock performances allows for the optimal use of genetic resources to improve yield and nut quality. This study aimed to evaluate growth, yield, and fruit characteristics of ‘Mateur’ and ‘Achouri’ pistachio cultivars grafted on P. vera and P. atlantica rootstocks grown in northeastern Tunisia. The research was based on three years worth of monitoring of growth, yield and fruit quality. Results showed that annual bio-climatic features had significant effects on all studied parameters. The ‘Mateur’ cultivar showed higher vigor and fruit yield than ‘Achouri’. Fruit production was higher in P. atlantica rootstock for ‘Mateur’ but similar in both studied rootstocks for ‘Achouri’. Kernel fat contents (40.7–46.8%) and fatty acid profiles were low or not affected by cultivar, rootstock and their combination. Oleic acid (C18:1) was the major fatty acid (68.94–69.22%) in kernel oil. The unsaturated/saturated fatty acid and oleic/linoleic acid ratios indicated that nuts obtained had high quality. The lower performances of ‘Achouri’ cultivar in the studied conditions may be related to low acclimation ability of this cultivar. These conditions, however, seem to be suitable for both studied rootstocks.
