Abstract

The hazelnut ( Corylus avellanaL.) industry in the Pacific Northwest can be traced to one leading cultivar: ‘Barcelona,’ and its pollinizer ‘Daviana.’ In 1980 Dr. Harry Lagerstedt, a U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service Horticulturist, now retired, introduced C. avellana‘Ennis’ hazelnut as a replacement for ‘Barcelona’. ‘Ennis’ now comprises more than 15 % of the Oregon hazelnut crop - despite the encroachment of eastern filbert blight [ Anisogrammina anomala(Pk.) Muller], a fungal disease to which this cultivar is highly susceptible. This cultivar was co-released with ‘Butler’ (1).
