Descriptions

Walnut is the common name for 20 species of deciduous trees in the Juglans genus (native to south-western Asia, eastern Asia, and the Americas).

Tree nuts and Peanuts are frequent causes of severe IgE-mediated food hypersensitivity and anaphylaxis. In particular, tree nut allergies are potentially life-threatening, rarely outgrown, and appear to be increasing in prevalence. Peanut and tree-nut allergic reactions coexist in a third of Peanut-allergic patients, frequently occur on first known exposure, and may be life-threatening. The frequency of Walnut allergy in children with IgE-mediated food allergy has been reported as 4.2%. Copyright Copyright © 2006 Phadia AB. Source: ImmunoCap, ImmunoCap

Walnuts (genus Juglans) belong to the family of Juglandaceae. They are deciduous trees, 10-40 meters tall (about 30-130 ft), with pinnate leaves 200-900 millimetres long (7-35 in), with 5-25 leaflets. The shoots have chambered pith, a character shared with the wingnuts (Pterocarya), but not the hickories (Carya) in the same family.
The 23 species in the genus range across the north temperate Old World from southeast Europe east to Japan, and more widely in the New World from southeast Canada west to California and south to Argentina.
