Abstract

This experimental study was carried out between the years of 1997 and 2008 to determine the best pistachio rootstock-cultivar combinations for irrigated conditions in Sanliurfa in Turkey. Four different Pistacia species (Pistacia khinjuk Stocks, Pistacia atlantica Desf., Pistacia vera L. and Pistacia terebinthus L.) were used as rootstocks and five standard pistachio cultivars (Siirt, Ohadi, Kellekoci, Kerman and Selection 14) were grafted on them. Experimental orchard was established by 4x6 m in spacing in 1997.
