“…Select tree crops demonstrate potential as new or emerging commercial crops for the Midwest U.S. Research to advance the commercialization of these tree crops has progressed over the past decade, with emphasis on adapting cultivated selections to particular regions across the Eastern and Midwest U.S. (Table 1). Variety improvement has stimulated new regional tree crop industries [11] and, in some cases, assembled resources requisite to access domestic markets [26], e.g., diverse and characterized breeding material. Systematic exploitation of existing resources offers an opportunity to scale these crops and capitalize on regional and domestic market growth [11,40].…”

“…Expanding the cultivated range of the European hazelnut using the American hazelnut. Commercial hazelnut cultivation is an ongoing pursuit in the Eastern and North-central U.S. over the last several decades [25,26]. Development initiatives center on the adaptation of cultivated European hazelnut selections (Corylus avellana) through the introgression of regional climatic adaptations and eastern filbert blight (EFB) resistance [24,83,96].…”

In the Midwest U.S. dominated corn-soybean landscape, agroforestry systems can be particularly valuable for increasing the provisioning and regulatory capacity of the agricultural landscape. However, these systems have not yet been broadly integrated into the landscape of this region since they are mostly relegated to marginal lands. A growing body of literature suggests a path to increase the adoption of agroforestry in the Midwest U.S. lies in the incorporation of low-input food-producing tree species that provide economic incentives for farmers. Studies of the system-level integration of such approaches have proceeded by using the currently available cultivars and breeding selections of various tree nut and fruit species. While existing varieties and breeding selections provide the opportunity for initial system development and integration, their broad adaptability to the Midwest U.S. and its marginal land-types is unexplored. Thus, a second tier of research includes the genetic improvement and adaptation of tree crop selections to their respective target environments throughout the Midwest U.S. Fortunately, select tree crops of interest are amendable to systematic breeding and have wild relatives that are endemic across the region. In this paper, we discuss the value of these wild relatives for broadening the adaption of cultivated tree crop selections by using the hazelnut as an example species. We present a framework using geospatial tools to define and prioritize target environments for breeding and, in turn, exploiting wild relative germplasm.

“…The most interesting are listed (Table 6.3). At Rutgers University, New Jersey (eastern USA) hazelnut evaluation and breeding efforts began in 1996 with a primary objective to identify and developed improved germplasm and cultivars resistant to EFB and adapted to the cold climate of the northeastern USA (Molnar et al 2005(Molnar et al , 2018a. Four Corylus avellana breeding selections are expected to be released in 2020.…”

Frost resistance of hazelnut varieties in the Central Black Earth Region of Russia

The I. V. Michurin Federal Scientific Center has concentrated a hazelnut genotypes collection of various ecological and geographical origin. Based on existing collection contemporary breeding work pointed at creating of new adapted to the soil and climate conditions of the Central Black Earth Region varieties of nuts. In this paper, we analyzed the indicators of frost resistance of hazelnut varieties of the species Corylus avellana L. and Corylus pontica C. (Koch.). Based on a comparative assessment valuable genotypes identification for producing and further breeding was the main purpose of the study. The paper shows the results of studying of 37 hazelnut varieties by the reaction to temperature decrease up to −40°C after standard quenching. We have identified the sources of high frost resistance, among which a special place is occupied by a new Schelkunchik variety. This genotype has no damage of the bark and cambium tissues, reversible damage of wood and vegetative buds, and a low level of male inflorescences lethality (2%). We have identified the frost resistance potential of the varieties Moskovskiy rubin, Ivanteevskiy krasniy, Pushkinskiy krasniy, Moscovskiy ranniy, Academik Yablokov. It is sufficient for cultivation of those varieties at the conditions of the Central Black Earth Region of Russia.
