Excessive boron (B) in soil and water is a problem for pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) production in the San Joaquin Valley (SJV) of California. Although amenable, leaching of B requires more water than chlorine (Cl) or sodium (Na) and is increasingly difficult as B in irrigation water increases. The lack of subsurface drainage to the ocean increases soil salinity in many growing areas, especially on the west side of the SJV where B is often excessive natively in the soil and water. Pistachio rootstocks that can tolerate or exclude B may be a partial solution. For the past decade in California, the dominant rootstock has been seedlings and clonal selections of University of California Berkeley 1 (UCB-1), which is a hybrid of P. atlantica × P. integerrima. This reliance on a genetically similar pool of rootstocks has constrained Pistacia’s genetic potential for adapting to high-salt environments. This study compared scion and rootstock leaflet B concentration of novel hybrid experimental rootstocks with variable percentages of P. vera and P. integerrima heritage with UCB-1. Rootstocks with P. vera heritage limited B in both rootstock and scion leaflets compared with UCB-1. In six trials conducted over several years, leaflet B in ungrafted hybrid rootstocks having 62.5% to 75% P. vera and 25% to 37.5% P. integerrima heritage had 27.6% to 43.1% lower B leaflet concentration than did UCB-1. Depending on the experiment and year, grafted rootstocks having 37.5% P. vera and 62.5% P. integerrima heritage had 46.8% to 70.8% lower B scion leaflet concentration than did UCB-1. Genetic variation in B uptake in Pistacia species and interspecific hybrids, and among individual seedlings within populations, allows the breeding of pistachio rootstocks more tolerant of excess B.

Menengiç (Pistacia terebinthus), antioksidan, antimikrobiyal, anti-enflamatuar ve sitotoksik aktivitesi olan birçok biyoaktif bileşen içermektedir. Menengiç, Antep fıstığı (Pistacia vera) ile aynı familyadadır ancak Antep fıstığı birçok gıdada kullanılan yaygın bir aroma olmasına rağmen, menengiç tüketimi çerez ve menengiç kahvesi yapımıyla sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmada amacımız menengici zengin fenolik içeriğiyle alternatif bir aroma seçeneği olarak dondurmaya ilave etmektir. Bu amaçla menengiç 125 °C’de 40 dk kavrulduktan sonra dondurmaya 4 farklı oranda (%1, 2, 3 ve 5) ilave edilmiştir. Dondurma örneklerinin fiziksel, kimyasal ve duyusal özellikleri, antioksidan aktivite ve toplam fenolik miktarları menengiç içermeyen kontrolle kıyaslanmıştır. Menengiç ilavesi dondurma örneklerinin pH değerini düşürmüş, toplam kuru madde, yağ ve kül miktarını artırmış, erime süresini uzatmış, fakat viskoziteyi değiştirmemiştir. Antioksidan aktive menengiç oranındaki artışla artmıştır. Toplam fenolik miktarı 21–96 mg/kg arasında değişmiş ve artan menengiç oranına göre toplam fenolik madde içeriği de artış göstermiştir. %1 menengiç içeren dondurmaların duyusal analiz sonuçları genel olarak diğer örneklerden daha yüksek skor alarak kontrole benzer bulunmuştur.

Several plants in the genus Pistacia are used in the treatment of various pathogenic and non-pathogenic disorders. Especially important are the major species belonging to this genus such as Pistacia lentiscus, Pistacia atlantica, Pistacia vera, Pistacia terebinthus, and Pistacia khinjuk, among others; these have been reported for their potential benefits both in medical and commercial purposes. In addition, members of this genus exhibit numerous ethnomedicinal uses, such as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial, antihypertension, antihyperlipidemic, antiviral, and antiasthma. In light of these potential uses, the present chapter aimed to collect and summarize the literature about all of this medicinal information. Accordingly, this chapter focuses on the pharmacological uses and benefits of the genus Pistacia, especially those related to health issues.
