In nursery production, Turkish hazelnut (Corylus colurna L.) is been used as a rootstock for grafting hazelnut cultivars. Turkish hazelnut used as a rootstock do not form suckers, it is long living, resistant to frost and drought, and regarding soil condition have wide tolerance. Results of seedlings testing during 2004 shows that the highest tree height (49.27 cm), root neck diameter (12.22 mm), tree mass (19.89 g) and roots mass (21.85 g) had genotype B8. This genotype also has very long roots system (35.63 cm). The longest root system has genotype B9 (38.7 cm). This genotype also had a high number of primary roots (31.47), high tree mass (15.09 g) and high root system mass (17.03 g). The highest number of roots (31.93) genotype B7, with genotype B9 having similar value. By using appropriate nursery techniques like irrigation and nutrition, it is possible to get, in the first year of seedling development, appropriate rootstocks. In our conditions those are genotypes B8 and B9.
