“…The shell thickness, nut and kernel dimensions were measured with a digital caliper (Mitutoyo, Japan). The kernel ratio and nut and kernel size were calculated using the following equation 1, 2 and 3 (Balta et al, 2018a;Guler and Balta, 2020):…”

In this study investigated the effect of region on the nut and biochemical traits in Mincane hazelnut cultivar. The study was carried out in the Trabzon (Black Sea Region) and Sakarya (Marmara Region) districts, in 2021 and 2022. The material of the study consisted of the nut of Mincane hazelnut cultivar grown in both regions. Depending on regions, nut weight was determined from 1.89 (Black Sea) to 2.14 g (Marmara), while kernel weight was found from 1.89 (Black Sea) to 2.14 g (Marmara). The highest total phenolics was detected in Black Sea region (118.1 mg 100 g-1). Conversely, Marmara region had the highest total flavonoids (8.1 mg 100 g-1) and antioxidant activity (1027.8 and 738.1 µmol 100 g-1 according to DPPH and FRAP assays, respectively). As a result, the region had a significant effect on the investigated nut and biochemical traits. The Marmara region produced the best results for many of the traits examined.

“…The kernel ratio (%) was calculated by the equation of 'kernel weight/nut weight × 100' as previously reported. Kernel size (mm) was calculated as the geometric mean of kernel size (width, thickness and length) (Balta et al, 2018).…”

“…The results were similar to reports on the same cultivars by different researchers in terms of nut weight, kernel weight, kernel ratio, shell thickness and kernel size. It has been reported that the nut and kernel traits of hazelnuts can be also be influenced by ecological conditions, and cultural and technical practices (Balta et al, 2018;Guler and Balta, 2020;Bak and Karadeniz, 2021).…”

“…To date, many studies have been conducted to determine the effects of factors such as cultivar (Köksal et al, 2006;Alasalvar et al, 2010), genotype, echography, cultural practices (Balta et al, 2006;Yılmaz et al, 2019;Balik, 2021), harvest time, maturity level (Cristofori et al, 2015), storage, drying methods (Turan, 2019), altitude, and direction (Balta et al, 2018) on the bioactive compounds and fatty acids in hazelnuts. However, there is no study in the literature on the changes in bioactive compounds and fatty acid composition depending on the cluster drop intensity in hazelnuts.…”

This study was conducted to determine how the intensity of the cluster drop effects nut traits, bioactive compounds, and fatty acid composition in Tombul, Palaz and Kalınkara hazelnut cultivars. The cluster drop significantly affected bioactive compounds and fatty acid composition while it did not affect the traits of the nuts. As cluster drop intensity increased, nut traits and bioactive compounds in all cultivars increased. Strong cluster drop intensity determined the highest total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activity. Except for the Kalınkara cultivar, a low amount of linoleic acid was detected while high amounts of oleic and stearic acid were determined in slight cluster drop intensity. As cluster drop intensity increased, palmitic acid increased. Principal component analysis showed that the slight and intermediate drop intensity were generally associated with kernel length, oleic, linoleic, stearic, palmitoleic, 11-eicosenoic and arachidic acids. In contrast, strong intensity was associated with nut and kernel weight, kernel ratio, kernel width, kernel thickness, kernel size, bioactive compounds, and palmitic acid. As a result, the bioactive compounds and fatty acid composition, which are important for human health, was significantly affected by cluster drop intensity.
