This account presents information on all aspects of the biology of Corylus avellana L. (Hazel) that are relevant to understanding its ecological characteristics and behaviour. The main topics are presented within the standard framework of the Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: distribution, habitat, communities, responses to biotic factors, responses to environment, structure and physiology, phenology, floral and seed characters, herbivores and disease, history and conservation. Wild C. avellana in Britain and Ireland grows in a wide climatic and ecological range, in a broad suite of vegetation communities, particularly woodlands, at all latitudes and from 0 to 650 m asl. It supports a large number of faunal and fungal associates. The developing plant sends up basal shoots every spring from the peripheral parts of its underground stool, which gives it a structural regenerative advantage over cohabitant woody species. The flowers and pollen of C. avellana are adapted for wind pollination, yet honeybees have been observed to gather its pollen. The pollen and fruit of C. avellana are a cause of allergic reactions in sensitive people, with previous exposure to Birch pollen a strong predictor of the food allergy. Corylus avellana is native to Europe and western Asia, and was one of the first plant species to recolonize Europe after the last gIacial period. By the time of its cultivation in the Roman empire, regional human‐selected lineages of C. avellana were already developing, with independent domestication in the western and eastern Mediterranean. Corylus avellana is a genetically diverse taxon with effective gene flow across populations, presenting a continuum of wild to domesticated plants. Its nuts and involucres show a wide morphological variability, with hundreds of cultivars and forms proposed. The taxon Corylus maxima Mill. is sympatric and fully fertile with C. avellana, yet rarely self‐sown and their hybrid is little recorded in Britain and Ireland. Independent molecular studies have concluded that specimens of C. maxima cluster with C. avellana. Hazelnuts are globally one of the most important nut crops, currently with 70% of traded nuts being grown in Türkiye, followed by Italy and Azerbaijan.

Sorghum is one of the bioenergy crops, with considerable tolerance to salinity. The current work was undertaken to assess the salinity tolerance of brown midrib (bmr) mutant lines and wild parents for biomass composition and potential theoretical ethanol yield (TEY). The variation for salinity levels in field plots was significant; hence, salinity screening under controlled environment was performed. The mutant line N 600 (bmr-12) had performed better under field screening (at 10 dS m -1 ) with fresh stalk yield of 17.3 t ha -1 , dry stalk yield of 7.4 t ha -1 , and grain yield of 2.0 t ha -1 . The performance of bmr-6 and bmr-12 mutant alleles showed that bmr-12 allele, i.e., N 597 and N 600 had performed better than its wild types EHS and Atlas, respectively, for relative fresh and dry biomass index at 20, 40 and 80 days after imposing 150 mM salinity stress. The lines N 597 (13.05 cm 2 g -1 ), N 596 (6.84 cm 2 g -1 ) and N 593 (7.39 cm 2 g -1 ) recorded the highest specific leaf area at 20, 40 and 80 days of stress, respectively. High membrane stability index was recorded in mutants N 596 (bmr-6-85.33%) and N 597 (bmr-12-84.78%) with EHS though under different genetic background under stress. Higher TEY was recorded in N 597 (2219.82 L ha -1 ), N 600 (2159.79 L ha -1 ), N 595 (2019.03 L ha -1 ) and N 598 (1945.33 L ha -1 ) under stressed conditions, with a moderate reduction of 47.85 and 47.50% in 2014 and 2015, respectively, in TEY.Keywords Brown midrib (bmr) Á Biomass Á Salinity Á Sorghum Á Membrane stability index (MSI) Á Theoretical ethanol yield (TEY)
