The size, colour, level of internal damage and external damage of walnuts are four important quality factors. Colour properties (L', a', b', hue angle and chroma values) of Bilecik, Yalova-1 and Yalova-3 shelled walnut varieties as a function of moisture content were determined. The average L' values of shelled walnuts decreased with increase in moisture content for Bilecik, Yalova-1 and Yalova-3 walnut varieties. All colour characteristics were affected by the moisture content studied.
Keywords: walnut cultivar; colour properties
