An excellent variety of pistachio

1. Long fruit pistachio: the fruit shape of long fruit pistachio is long oval, there is a red halo around the fruit, the top of the fruit is pointed, the vertical diameter length is 2.5 cm and the transverse diameter length is 1.1 cm, the fruit setting rate of the fruit tree is very high, and it has strong high yield. it is a large fruit type variety with the most promising growth.

2. Early-maturing pistachio: the precocious pistachio tree is weak, the branches of the fruit tree are curved and drooping, the fruit shows lenticels, the lenticels are white, the shape of the lenticels is round and very prominent, the fruit setting rate is medium, and the fruit is oval in shape, with a vertical diameter of 1.9 cm and a horizontal diameter of 1.0 cm, showing a red color on the top and sunny side of the fruit. There are obvious stripes on the pericarp of the fruit.

3. Short-fruit pistachio: the short-fruit pistachio tree has medium potential, smooth leaves, sparse hairs covering it, low fruit setting rate, oval fruit, yellow-white fruit color, 2.1 cm in vertical diameter and 1.3 cm in transverse diameter.

4. Noterol: Noterol fruit tree is a central Asian group, which produces a large pistachio fruit, the flavor of the fruit is not very good, the seeds are green and the cracking rate is high.

5. Dahan: the growth potential of Dahan fruit tree is very exuberant and belongs to the variety of late flowering. The fruit has the characteristics of high quality, high yield and large fruit, and the quality is the best among pistachios.

6. Coleman: the Coleman fruit tree is a female plant, which has the characteristics of large fruit and high yield. the serious phenomenon of hanging fruit every other year is one of the phenomena of the fruit tree, and the remaining phenomenon is that the empty shell and the fruit shell do not crack, and the fruit tree grows vigorously. The advantages of late flowering, high quality, large fruit and high yield are as follows: the single kernel weight of the fruit is 1.3 grams and the green quality of the kernel is good.

7. Sarell: the tree potential of Sarile fruit tree is moderate, which has the characteristics of high yield and easy fruiting, the fruit setting rate is very high, and the white and high quality of large nuts are all the characteristics of this kind of fruit.
