European hazelnut, an important nut crop in Oregon agriculture, is threatened by the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. The hazelnut breeding program at OSU has been working on development of EFB-resistant cultivars. DNA markers allow mapping of traits using segregating progenies and...
The european hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is native 24 to most of Europe and nearby
areas in Asia Minor and the Caucasus Mountains. Cross-pollination is enforced by sporophytic
incompatibility under the control of a single locus with multiple alleles (haplotypes).
Fluorescence microscopy is routinely used to determine if a pollination...

The European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is a diploid (2n = 2x = 22) tree crop important to the economy of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, where 99% of hazelnut production in the United States is located. Corylus avellana exhibits sporophytic self-incompatibility (SSI), controlled by a single S-locus with at least 33...
New highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). were developed from several sources. The markers were characterized, and segregation in a mapping population allowed to assign them to linkage groups. Their transferability across genera and species in the Betulaceae family was investigated. SSR markers...
European hazelnut, Corylus avellana L., is the only economically important nut crop
in the family Betulaceae. One of the threats to the hazelnut industry in the Pacific
Northwest is the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the
pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host genetic resistance to EFB identified in the...
Eastern filbert blight (EFB), caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E.
Miiller, is a devastating disease to orchards of the European hazelnut (Corylus
avellana L.) in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Host resistance is the most
desirable means of disease control. Fifty-eight hazelnut accessions, including
European cultivars and interspecific hybrids were evaluated...
The hundred-year history of the hazelnut industry in the Pacific Northwest is threatened by eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the fungus Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) has been extensively used for ‘Gasaway’ resistance in the hazelnut breeding program at Oregon State University. Concern over breakdown of...
European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is a diploid with 11 pairs of chromosomes (2n = 2x = 22), monoecious, dichogamous and wind-pollinated. Eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by Anisogramma anomala is a serious disease of European hazelnut (Corylus avellana) in North America, and infection leads to cankers that girdle branches...
Heritability in the narrow sense and in the broad sense, variance components and
correlation coefficients are important genetic parameters in a breeding program. The
estimates of these parameters can provide important information for a breeder in the
selection of parents, the most efficient design for evaluation of seedlings and advanced...
Inheritance of eight enzyme systems, alanine aminopeptidase (AAP), aspartate
aminotransferase (AAT), aconitase (ACON), glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI),
malate dehydrogenase (MDH), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD),
phosphoglucomutase (PGM), and shikimate dehydrogenase (SDH) was studied in
hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) by either polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
(PAGE) or starch gel electrophoresis. Three isozymes were detected...
Twenty-one pairs of simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers were used to
investigate genetic diversity in 270 accessions of European hazelnut (Corylus avellana)
representing a wide geographic range. A capillary electrophoresis system and ABI
Genescan® and Genotyper® software were used to determine the allele size generated
from each PCR reaction based...
Anthesis of both staminate and pistillate flowers of Corylus occurs in midwinter. To insure adequate pollination and nut set, these flowers must attain a sufficient hardiness level to withstand low temperatures. This study estimated cold hardiness of Corylus cultivars and species using laboratory freezing of shoots without artificial hardening. In...
To identify novel host genetic resistance to eastern filbert blight, caused by the fungus Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller, ninety European hazelnut {Corylus avellana L.) varieties and interspecific hybrids (with C. americana Marsh, or C. colurna L.) were screened for response to the eastern filbert blight pathogen after inoculation in...
Using bulked segregant analysis, five RAPD markers were identified that were
linked in coupling to a gene conferring complete resistance to eastern filbert blight caused
by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). Two
modified backcross populations were inoculated and scored for resistance to the pathogen
and...
European hazelnut is a significant crop in the Pacific Northwest, and the US ranks
4th internationally for hazelnut production. Production in the Pacific Northwest is
threatened, however, by the disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the fungus
Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. To meet the challenges faced by the...
Eastern filbert blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller,
is a serious threat to hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) production. Resistant
cultivars offer the best control. Screening systems were needed to reliably
identify disease, particularly in immune progeny derived from 'Gasaway'. An
indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) was developed using...
