There is no Persian Talmud.
The difference between the Talmud Bavli and Talmud Yerushalmi is that they are discussions on the identical sets of Mishna (Oral Torah) that took place in different Yeshivoth (houses of learning). The discussions in the Yerushalmi Talmud were under the leadership of Rabbi Yochanan, mostly in the third century CE in the Yeshiva in Tiberias. The discussions in the Bavli Talmud were over the course of the third to the fifth centuries CE, in the Yeshivas of Sura, Pumbeditha and other Babylonian centers of Jewry (such as Nehardea).
While the wording of the discussions is different, the actual halakhot (laws) from the two Talmuds is well over 90% identical.

Which of the two authorized talmuds is considered the dominant version in Jewish theology and law?
The Babylonian Talmud. (The Jerusalem Talmud is mainly concerned with agriculture).
Did the Talmud exist during the time of Jesus?
A:No. The Talmud belongs to Rabbinic Judaism, and comes from the centuries following the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE. Two different Talmuds were produced, the Babylonian Talmud and the Jerusalem or Palestinian Talmud, with the Babylonian Talmud eventually becoming dominant.
Why is the Jerusalem Talmud significant?
Not many people are aware that there are two Talmuds: the Babylonian Talmud and the Jerusalem Talmud. When we speak of and quote the Talmud, we almost always are referring to the Babylonian Talmud, which is simply called "The Talmud." The Jerusalem Talmud is a separate work, which includes teachings of the Torah-sages of the land of Israel (Palestine) of the 3rd to 5th centuries CE. Its significance is that: 1) It includes many Torah-sayings that are not repeated in the "regular" Talmud, which are valuable in their own right; and 2) Whenever the Jerusalem Talmud states a decision or clarification in Torah-law that is not contradicted by the Babylonian Talmud, its decision is part of Jewish law.
What is the basic writing of Judaism?
The Torah comes in two parts, written and oral. The written part is refered to by Christian's as the "Old Testment", the Oral part is the Mishna which explains the Hebrew Bible, the Talmud then discusses and expands on the Mishna. Two talmuds exists, the Babylonian, and Jerusalem Talmud. Of these the Babylonian is the authoritive where there is a dispute. In addition to this Judiasm ruilings are passed on through both codifectaions of law and responsa where questions about law have been asked and answered

What contains commentaries on the Torah?
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of published classical commentaries. The most ancient are the various Midrashim, including Midrash Rabbah, Tanchumah, Zohar, Yalkut Shimoni, Mechilta, and others. The Talmud, in addition to its halakhic (Jewish law) discussions, has a vast amount of Tanakh-commentary (Jewish Bible commentary) interwoven with its other material. The most famous commentary is that of Rashi (Rabbi Shelomo Yitzchaki, 1040-1105). He wrote commentaries on the Torah, Prophets, Talmud, Midrash, and Passover Haggadah. Other Bible commentaries are those of the Ramban and Ibn Ezra.
