Abstract
Drought stress significantly increased the overall mean of water use efficiency (intrinsic and instantaneous WUE). There were no significant differences between the leaf carbon isotope compositions of all pistachio cultivars under stress. This indicates that this relation may not be used to determine pistachio cultivars with appropriate WUE via leaf carbon isotope composition within the time frame of the experiment. Leaf nitrogen isotope composition decreased under drought stress regardless off the cultivar.
