Cryopreservation by droplet vitrification was applied to hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). axillary buds of the Italian cultivated variety Tonda Gentile Romana, which were collected from in vitro growing shoots, immersed ice cooled PVS2 or PVS3 for 60 90 min, then transferred a solution, placed on strip aluminium foil, and plunged into liquid nitrogen (LN). Additionally, effect recovery mother pl...

The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect nut sizes and drying methods on sensory attributes hazelnut cultivars (Corylus avellana L. cvs. Çakıldak, Palaz Tombul) during storage. Shelled were dried under sun, shadow at room conditions cold 2 °C 7 stored 20±5 80±5 % relative humidity. Evaluation carried out quarterly (harvest, 3, 6, 9 months).
