In this work, 18 microsatellite loci were developed in the European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) using three enriched genomic libraries. They were evaluated on a set of 20 accessions of this species on the basis of number of alleles (mean: 7.1), expected heterozygosity (mean: 0.67), power of discrimination (mean: 0.77) and polymorphism information content (mean: 0.64). Cross‐species transferability was evaluated using seven other Corylus species. All primer pairs amplified in all species, except for CaT‐C505 in Corylus ferox and CaT‐A114 in Corylus californica.
