Micro-Propagation of Pistachios

The smack walnut, known as L. pistachio in botany, is the only edible among 11 dicotyledonous plants. These dicotyledonous plants are native to West Asia and therefore native to peninsulas from the Syrian Arab Republic to the Caucasus and Afghanistan. Tests in Turkey indicate that it has existed since 7000 BC and is used as food. This tree was introduced to Europe at the beginning of the Christian era. Pistachios thrive in cold places, where winter disrupts hibernation and long hot summers. Therefore, the world places that are suitable for the crazy pistachio group are limited globally to high humidity. Pistachio tissue culture research began nearly two decades ago. These cover the majority of the work done with Pistachio trees between 1982 and 2000. Cloning Pistachio trees in vitro is very useful for propagating heterozygous and sexually incompatible Pistachio trees. Tissue culture techniques can help with this. Micro-propagation can be used to accomplish rapid asexual reproduction through organogenesis, somatic embryogenesis, and micrografting. The Anacardiaceous includes more than 70 genera and more than 600 species, most of which are mainly trees and shrubs that grow regularly in tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions. The genus Pistacia includes eleven shrubs and deciduous trees. For Ex-vitro growth, the seedlings are washed with water to induce the removal of material. Before planting, soak the shoot tips in commercially available rooting powder. In this review, we have tried to brief the micro-propagation of the pistachio by the accessible literature.
